West Glacier KOA

This is one of my favorite places to stay near Glacier Park. This place provides access to the west entrance and north fork areas of the park. It has a pool and hottub, playground, cabins and tent sites for rent, the most incredible flowers and live music all summer! I truly can’t recommend this place enough.

It feels like the last few years we have had a huge increase in northern lights. I also believe that sharing across social media platforms has helped people know when to get outside. The lights are still rarely visible to the naked eye in my experience, but rather easier seen behind a camera lens.

These were taken in October 2024 in Kalispell, Montana. One of the best light shows I have ever seen.

The first time I ever saw them was at Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park in July 2016.

It was a long, cold winter in Montana and we are so glad the ice is melting on the lakes as we head into my favorite season - hiking! What hikes do you have planned for this summer?

One thing I am trying to get better about this year is posting more on Youtube. This is our winter season so far at Whitefish Mountain Resort - if you enjoy it, please follow me on Youtube!

They called for a low snow year. Not only have we gotten a ton of snow, we also have had an unseasonably cold winter. So cold we often can’t ski. But these a...

I took too long of a break from posting on Facebook. You can find my photos on instagram . Just returned from a quick 48 hours in the backcountry of Glacier Park where I was lucky enough to experience this smoky sunrise.
