Lake McDonald Lodge











We went back into Glacier National Park, west side, one more time. I wanted to go into the Lake McDonald Lodge and check out the back. It was really, really nice. I think I liked it better than Old Faithful Inn. It is smaller, but I liked it. There are a lot of small log cabins to larger house cabins there too. They have a general store there, restaurant in the lodge and a stand-alone restaurant, a post office, and place to catch the red Jammer tour buses. There is also a tour boat that gives a one hour tour of Lake McDonald from the dock at Lake McDonald Lodge. One thing that was a little surprising about the west side of Glacier is how few roads there are that are paved. The biggie is the Road-to-the-Sun Rd. We stopped at Walmart on the way back for the last time. Tomorrow we will shop at Smith's and Super 1 Food Store to finish stocking up for St. Mary and Canada. We leave here Wed. morning for St. Mary Campground in the east side of Glacier National Park. We will be there for a week. We have no idea if there will be a hot spot for internet anywhere near or phone service. We know we will take the battery out of the phone when we go to Canada.
