Cobalt Lake

Two Medicine Lake sits in the southeastern part of Glacier NP away from the more popular Going-to-the-Sun Road. The 2-mile long lake has a 100 site campground that serves visitors on a first-come-first-serve basis; the campground opens mid-April and closes in November. From the main parking area, 12 different hikes can be accessed as well as a ramp for launching watercraft. (http://www.nps.gov...

You will get amazing panoramic views of Glacier National Park, but be prepared for...

This gripping, 16 mile round trail reveals adventure at every turn. Nestled behind Pray Lake in Glacier National Park, the Pitamakan Pass hike will begin at the North Shore Trailhead. To access this trailhead, a fifteen dollar fee may be payed to cross Pray Lake by boat. If your pocket book is running dry or you're really wanting to burn some extra calories, a 1.5 mile trail near Two Medicine C...

I did this trip during the end of autumn, and was pretty much the only person on the entire lake. With it being so serene and so quiet, I had the perfect nature getaway. I made sure to watch an epic sunrise on Two Medicine Lake, then spend the day taking my time to the upper lake and back, with a few small side trips along the way. Once you have reached Two Medicine Lake by car, find the Upper...
