i headed up the steep trail to blue glacier i was greeted by a meadows full of flowers. i found the spot where glacier creek came out of the snow and drained into a little pool. it was all very pretty. i passed two other day hikers who had just come down from the glacier and they reported that it was too foggy to see anything. but i continued up the hill shedding my extra clothes on the way. soon i was toe kicking my way up a steep snow covered hill in just a short -sleeved shirt and thin nylon pants.
i found a talking creek on the way down
