St. Mary Falls and Virginia
Falls |
|
at Glacier National Park's west entrance |
| St. Mary Falls is one of
the most popular hikes in the park - a 2.4 mile round trip which can be
extended to 3.6 miles by continuing to Virginia Falls. Yes, the two RV
Gypsies just had to see both falls. Be sure to look at all photos to see
how this hike ended. |

| Oh my - it has started to rain - and quite a heavy rain at that. It was a long hike back to the car, past the un-named falls and past St. Mary's Falls (just over 1-1/2 miles back). Look how dirty Karen's legs got. The two RV Gypsies had rain gear in the car, but ............... | |
