Brendan,
Your pictures are surreal, and there were so many good ones that it was hard to pick my favorite. Thank you for putting this together. I'll be keeping an eye on your blog in the future.

That is a fantastic trip in Glacier. The Belly is one of my favorite areas, even if it is overpopulated with campsites. We hit Stoney Indian this summer just as it opened up, and I really enjoyed seeing how it and the Belly looked late in the season. It amazes me how Glacier changes month to month.

Fantastic photos. I am impressed.

Great pictures and write up. A few of us west coasters did a similar route just a few weeks ago and like Clayton, I am struck by how different the scenery appears in just a short time. The pass west of Fifty Mountain was my favorite spot on the trip. When we were on top of the pass it was sunny with no wind and simply beautiful. I have never been on top of a pass that was so calm and peaceful (I'm sure its not always this way). Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the kind words!

Tom K, I was using a Fuji X100. I plan to have a review of the X100 as a backpacking camera up sometime soon.

Thanks, Brendan. You make the X100 look very good. I'll be looking forward to your review.
