Darrell coaxes Luna across the first bridge on our hike. This will be a 6 mile round trip. The first 3 miles had a 1500 ft elevation gain. Got our hearts pumping, for sure!
We stop for a view of the Flathead Valley, with the northern tip of Flathead lake on the left. The yellow patches are canola fields.
We made it! The lake is beyond, and a waterfall roars on the left.
Luna was more than ready for a swim after our hot hike. We stopped for lunch, threw the stick, and headed back.
Beargrass is growing all over the place. It's kind of a lily, but bears do not eat it. Investigation in my flower book tells me that the Blackfeet boiled the roots for stopping bleeding, ankle sprains and hair loss.
Back from the hike, Luna was asleep in 5 minutes. We had a tired dog, and our DOGS were tired!
