After the storm the other day, we drove the North Fork road out of Columbia Falls Mt, this road runs the length of Glacier National Park but outside the border of the park. It's a 50 mile long dirt road that ends at the Canadian border (crossing has been closed for years). It's a wonderful drive, especially in winter! All photo's except for #3 and #4 were taking from inside the pickup, so the sharpness isn't there but couldn't talk the hubby into stopping all the time...lol!

Great images, my favorite NP. The snow road to Polebridge looks to be in a lot better shape than the summer road!
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! And yes...the winter road is a lot better than the summer road. My hubby maintained that road for the county for the past 25 years, it was a tough road to keep smooth in the summer months and lots of plowing to do in the winter...he loved it!

Very nice set, Cindy! (BTW a real photographer would have sat in the pickup bed to avoid the glass issue (LOL)).

If there ever was a never ending job, that would have been it!

reminds me of the lovely old song "Blue Skies" sung by old Bing Crosby.
