Grinnell Glacier is in the heart of Glacier and is named for George Bird Grinnell, an early American conservationist and explorer, who was also a strong advocate of ensuring the creation of Glacier National Park. #XanterraTravel | #GlacierLodges | #OneWeekofIcons | #Day3

You can look at a calendar, but how else do you know when seasons are changing? Here in West Glacier we're seeing beargrass blooms popping up all over the place. They're a sign that summer is on its way, at least for lower elevations. Does it feel like summer yet where you live?
After spring-like temperatures this weekend, we woke up to fresh snow today. It seems that the weather knew it was #AprilFoolsDay.
It's always interesting to pack for a Yellowstone visit during the spring. #PackAllOfYourClothes

Lucky visitors were treated with sundogs within a 22° halo yesterday early in the morning as the temperature hovered around 0°F. These are atmospheric optical phenomena caused by the refraction of sunlight by ice crystals. Do you have a favorite sunlight phenomenon experience?
