Biking to ski Glacier (and snowboard)
Well it’s May now and most people are mowing the yard and planting gardens. But I’m still going for my endless winter adventures of skiing year round. I’m on month 18 in a row now and its snowing today. I do plan to get back out a few more times in May.
Below are some images from a recent trip on the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park. The road is closed at Lake McDonald Lodge so T.J. and I biked up to just below the loop and headed up a run out path for some turns.

The path came across two sections of the Going-to-the-Sun Road, this being the lower section.
It must have taken crews days to clean up this debris and snow from the road following this 100 year avalanche cycle. Must have been a HUGE slide.

TJ is always looking for a jib or feature to bounce off. Here he throws a grab in for good measure.
