=20 We left camp later than planned, which unfortunately resulted in
not having= enough daylight to actually see St. Mary's Glacier, but we
did get in some= nice offroading with great views, and drove up to the
top of Dakota Hill.<= br />
Some random pics for the day:

A small herd of elk, spotted from the Kingston Peak tr= ail. There
were about 20 or so. Later on, we saw a herd of around 100, but =
unfortunately they left before I had a chance to snap a picture. I
think Ed= might have gotten a shot with his telephoto lens though.

A view as we= are nearing the top of the Kingston Peak trail, at
around 12,000 feet. The= view down into this valley with its snow
fields, glacial pools and waterfa= lls was amazing. It was also
amazingly windy, and very cold. As you can see= , we are well above
some of those patches of snow. Its amazing to think tha= t on the
drive up, we saw temperatures in the 90s. Pictures just can't do i= t
justice, but this view alone was worth the drive.

When we got back to camp, we = discovered that our small pile of
firewood had been delivered, and that Kor= ey had stacked it. No more
scrounging for us - flame on! :-)
