Here's a picture I took of Flathead Lake last week, when the air was relatively clear, followed by one I took Saturday August 10th from high on a mountain looking down to the southwest. Not a good change! YUK!

Wildfires in the West
The wildfires throughout the west have brought thick smoke/haze to the Flathead Valley, where we're camped until next Sunday. We were on the west side of Glacier National Park yesterday and the views were obliterated by the smoke so I didn't take pictures -- we have many from our last visit to that area. A great place to track wildfires is at www.inciweb.org; there are active fires in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, & Utah -- apparently NONE in Colorado right now!

ReplyDeleteHike sounded awesome!
Love hearing of your adventures!
It's been good. Yes, the scenery is incredible and the hiking is great. We went on a little 'nature walk' along the Lake shore last night then went into Bigfork & walked around (tourist town for sure) and treated ourselves to huckelberry ice cream -- YUM!
