Amazing Day!!!!






















































Today It was an amazing Day!!!! Jessyca, Dustin, Patti, Dorla and I went on a hike. We Hiked up to Sioux Charley Lake. It is one of the most accessible and heavily used access points to the Beartooths. Getting there was a real treat. The drive up the stillwater River is one of the most scenic in Montana. It was truly beautiful. The stillwater flows majestically through a landscape which is breathtaking. The hike into Sioux Charley Lake is one of the most popular day hikes in the beartooth. From the trail head, it's 3 miles to the lake, all on a uphill grade, in which my daughter who is 9 months pregnant, hike all the way up and back down without one complaint. I was truly impressed with her. Soon after leaving the trail head, the trail enters a narrow canyon where, Right next to the trail, the river tumbles over a series of cascades and rapids. We stopped many times to enjoy the beautiful surrounding and take several pictures. After passing through the narrow canyon the trail winds its way through a heavy forest all the way to Sioux Charley Lake. Once we arrived at Sioux Charley Lake we sat and enjoying the beautiful surrounding and company of each other. On the hike Dorla stepped on a rock the wrong way and hurt her foot. It was a long hike down to our cars, with Dorlas foot hurting and it was also uncomfortable for Jessyca to go down the trail. It was truly amazing to see the beauty of Montana and Amazing to watch my Daughter go on a six mile hike. Stay Tuned for the next hike in a series of Many.
