We started today in the US and ended in Canada. We began the day in Glacier National Park, driving into an area called Many Glacier. It is a beautiful part of the park that I wanted to see before leaving. We parked near the end of the road and took a two mile hike to Lake Josephine.

This campground is at the trailhead of two nice hikes. We did the Trail of the Cedars, which is an interpretive walk; this means that it has plaques explaining different features of the park as you walk along.
