Views of Glacier from the helicopter
Jim the pilot!!
Great day!! Dry again...ride went well-Rick got his 4th flat already!! Decided to put new tire and tube on. Jeez. As we got into West Glacier, we came upon a helicopter tour service--very small operation. Rick went to check on price, etc..30 min. later we were in the air!! Jim Krueger is the owner/pilot!! Nice man..started flying for the Park Service back in 1970, started his touring company in 1980. He has done rescues..shot grizzlies that have killed humans from the air...then hauled the bears away..even brought an outhouse up on one of the mountains for a hiking shelter!! He was very knowledgeable of the whole Park. The views were stunning...I could hardly talk. I took some video and pics..but had a hard time uploading them to the blog, so check in a day or two for some great shots!! The best day yet!

Beautiful pictures. Abby is so jealous. We are almost in Deleware - making better time than you. Taking the "less traveled" roads - great scenery - not as good as yours however. Hope you have another "Best Day"!!
