Random 2025 Glacier video, work

14-second video: This is about to get interesting.

In the back of our minds is, “Which direction will the Grizzly go, and, are there others?”

Back to Glacier, work

Somewhere 8-9 miles into the ride.

Same spot. Different pose.

It was cold all day. It rained lightly the first couple miles. We didn’t know if we’d see the sun.

Mt Oberlin. Cheryl.

Nine miles from Avalanche to The Loop. The Loop sign here is the trailhead we use when we stay at Granite Park Chalet.

We will soon discover Sun Road is closed a few miles before Logan Pass due to avalanche danger.

No cars and few people make standing on Sun Road surreal.

West-side tunnel. Not far from The Loop.

Obviously, this view is better in person.

This is as far as anyone got to today.

Rafiki and Mulan. Great karma.

Before this trip, got to attend three consecutive one-day Disney Institute classes.

Different framing.

Go the extra inch is simple, key, repeatable. A client gave this kit to every leader at the conference in Omaha.

We’ll clock in at 22 miles roundtrip instead of 30.

Still a little snow. And we are four miles from the Pass.

All downhill from here. Note, includes the last six miles of relative flat at 3,300′.

We had to remind ourselves to stop for occasional photos like this one.

We enjoyed the ease which the e-bike provided.

Still bundled up.

Stats: 22 miles roundtrip, 2pm end time for a total ride time of four hours.

Our guide had to ‘rescue’ two of our group due to a bike malfunction. The extra hour delay was fine because the sun warmed up the parking lot.

This post qualifies as a contender for most photos in a single blog post. Fun stuff.

Our shared balcony.

We stayed in this room last year too. Not in the main building. Not an issue.

Watched every sunrise from here, our bedroom.

This summer, trailhead parking was less of an issue due to our remote Park location.

Way less people and cars in this geographical location. It’s a selling feature for us.

This year we spent 55 days in Glacier. Ten days in May. Six-plus weeks in the Summer.

A ton of memories, hikes, fun.

Two tons of photos.

September 1, 2025, work

outdoor wedding rehearsal
Last night’s wedding rehearsal. Practicing important things helps you. A simple truth. Practice, generally is a boring truth.

Simple truths are boring.

And, forgotten.

Fight like hell to rise above this boring truth.

Find a million ways to make your boring truths shine like diamonds and gold.

Leading Glacier

Apple Watch
Happy Friday. Did what i had time to do before heading to Apple Store…
MacBook Air package box
First new MacBook Air in 10 years.

Leading in Glacier is easy and intuitive when you visit solo.

Decently easy when it’s just me and Cheryl.

It gets exponentially more challenging when you add four (possibly five) more mid-20’s adults.

This is not anywhere near being in my wheelhouse.

Stressful would be accurate.

And, what a challenge and opportunity to have.

Grateful.

Humbled.
