Living Coast 2 Coast

We checked out the Hungry Horse Reservoir. We found a spot where we could drive down next to the water. The rocks were so colorful.

We then went over to the Hungry Horse Dam. It is tenth tallest dam in the United States and the third tallest curved dam. It is over 500 feet tall so you know the water is deep. It features a glory hole for when the water level gets too high. The water will flow into the glory hole and drop 490 feet straight down.

Check out the video and let us know what you think.

This is part of our Season 3 Part 2 and was filmed in the second half of 2019.

We chose the Emery Bay Campground primarily because the were no open spots in the Glacier National Park campgrounds for a rig our size. Emery Bay Campground is about 15 minutes from the west entrance to Glacier National Park and is located in the Flathead National Forest .

It does not have very many sites that would accommodate our rig. hehe… we got the last one. It is located on the Hungry Horse Reservoir and even has a boat ramp. It, however, does not have very good access to the water to swim or play. There is a few places not too far away to get in the water. It worked out great for us as a single place to stay that had water access and Glacier National Park close enough to get to easily.
