Is The Horse Hungry? – Hungry Horse Reservoir

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

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.

Are You Lost? The girls were for a bit at the Montana Maze and Amazing Fun Center.

The main attraction is a giant maze that has 2 levels and you are supposed to collected four stamps that spell out MAZE. Then find your way out. It took the girls approximately 45 minutes to accomplish.

They also have mini golf, go carts, bumper boats, and something called Bankshot Basketball.

It was a fun time. Let’s check it out!

Glacier National Park Going To The Sun Road

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

Welcome to Glacier National Park. This is a place full of waterfalls, creeks and, much more. I’m not going to lie, I didn’t like sitting in the truck all day but now I look back and think “wow I really love that place”. I want to thank Mom (Lisa) and Dad (Rick) for taking us to Glacier National Park. One of the things I love is its view, you can spin around and you’ll be amazed by what you see. Its a little scary being up there the ground was so far down. Outside of the park, there were some cows. A mama and 3 babies you can see 2 of the babies in the video. The other baby was still in the trees on the side of the road. Thank you for joining us on this adventure but it is time to go. I’ll catch you in the next one bye bye.

Glacier National Park

Posted on by Posted in Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today, we are exploring Glacier National Park! First, before taking the “Going To The Sun Road”, we visited the visitor center. The visitor center was very informative and also had a gift shop. Plus they had park rangers to help plan what you should see in the park. We took a trail that showed us around the visitor center. We also saw tons of rivers in the park, most of them were pretty deep and blue. You should plan on staying in the park for a while if you want to see most of the things there.

Southern Loop – Yellowstone National Park

Posted on by Posted in RV Living, Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today we are visiting the Yellow Stone National Park Southern Loop. This loop contains Old Faithful, Gibbon Falls and other cool things. The southern loop is probably my favorite part of Yellowstone. It has a lot of waterfalls and trails as well. It is very beautiful like the rest of the park.

And in the words of Jupiter:

Tower Falls – Yellowstone National Park

Posted on by Posted in RV Living, Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today we visited Tower Falls, Yellowstone National Park. It is kinda north of the lake, I do recommend visiting the Tower Falls. As you see, Dad is very thirsty and wanted a drink of the nice water from the falls.

West Thumb – Yellowstone National Park

Posted on by Posted in RV Living, Scenery, Sightseeing .

Today we visited the West Thumb in Yellowstone National Park.

This is located in the lower area of Yellowstone. The geysers put off a lot of heat, it kinda feels like you are in a sauna. The walk around these geysers was not very long.

Mom didn’t go on this walk because we didn’t know if we could get the wheelchair through the boardwalk.

It was really cool how some of the geysers we’re kinda erupting.

It is funny how everyone was looking at one and another one across from it got jealous and boiled a bunch. We met a group of people that told us that one of the geysers is 53 feet deep.

The lake was very very pretty.

It was cool how there was one geyser with hot water coming out right next to the cold water lake.

The water that the girls and I touched was cold and it was from some of the geysers. The reason that it was cold is because it was going through a little stream which cooled the water off.
