Grinnell Glacier Trail

Fireweed was blooming along the Grinnell Glacier Trail in Glacier National Park, in August 2024. A waterfall was coming down the dark cliff band below the basin, and snow was still hanging on the rock above. It was around 56, under a partly cloudy sky, with only a light breeze.

The Grinnell Glacier Trail is one of the main walks on the east side of the park, climbing toward a hanging basin. I stopped here and took this of the flowers and the falls. The day before we had been on a pebble shore in the park.
