St Mary's Glacier
Scenic spot
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Parked in the car park for $5 and then a short walk along the road before starting the upward hike. It's 20-30 mins walk through forest over rubble before you get to the lake. Stunning views when you get there. Can continue up to the Glacier for even better views. Great hike, good for families a...

Phoenix Gold Mine

πŸ‘πŸ‘ A truly unique, family-owned mine. We had the pleasure of getting one of the owners give us a tour.

Herman Gulch Trailhead

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Beautiful hike! Large parking lot, but still worth getting there early. On the day of the hike, June 12, 2022 there was still snow on some areas of the trails.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ The road to the trailhead is rough and rocky, best suited for a 4x4 but some cars were there. Parking is limited and best be there early 5:30 - 7 am. We overnighted in our 4RUNNER. I started early at 4 am because of my age, 70. I have to take it slow. It was difficult but I made it to the top of...
