Before I start the catch up part of the journey, here are a few of the wildflowers in Alaska that grow abundantly on the roadside, in the rocks and near the snow.

I have taken so many flower pictures, it's hard to pick. These were some of the small ones. Another time I'll have to show some of the tall varieties.
Going back to the begining of June, we dropped the Aliner off at the Windmill Storage Center on June 6 and paid for four months of storage.  We found out the pass was closed for two more weeks at East Glacier so we stayed there one night and walked some, then headed for West Glasier to use the boarder crossing at that side. We spent time in Whitefish, MT  before crossing on June 10.   Here are some pics.

The sites at Glacier were right on top of each other but it was beautiful.

See the road on the right? That's the same road as the one in the center that we are driving on. From then until now, that's pretty much what all the roads are like that we're on. This is a really mild one. We will be driving lots on hairpin turns on the sides of mountains. David loves it.

One of the many, many waterfalls we get to see.

This is our first black bear picture. We slowed down enough to take a short video of him walking along the side of the car but when he looked over and gave me the eye I put the camera down and waved goodby. Earlier that day we saw a grizzly bear walking along the tree line but didn't get a picture.

Camp at Whitefish, MT

This was our view when we entered British Columbia.

This is Tangle Falls

These Big Horn Sheep were hanging out at Tangle Falls posing for everyone.
Well, that's all for today.  We moved camp today to Palmer, AK  and even have 4G on our phone.  Might be because we are only 45 miles or so from Anchorage.   More tomorrow,  Love,  Barb and Dave
