August 12th - August 18th

Glacier National Park

 
Day 1
Depart Spokane Washington 2PM
We start this fantastic trip by picking up you and your fellow Adventurers in Spokane WA.
We'll prep you for your adventure and then enjoy a comfortable journey to Glacier National Park.
You may choose to sleep in a bus bed, in a tent, or out under the stars. (Tents and sleeping pads will be provided)
Day 2
Avalanche Creek and the Trail of Cedars
Hike to an amazing alpine lake surrounded by snowcapped peaks and steaming waterfalls. The trail first begins with the towering Trail of Cedars and then follows the beautiful Avalanche Creek to Avalanche Lake.  In the late afternoon, relax on the shores of beautiful Lake McDonald, rent a kayak, or visit the shops at Apgar Village. We'll enjoy a cookout and campfire tonight, and perhaps a local favorite: Huckleberry Ice Cream!
a
Day 3
Rafting and travel to the East Glacier.
Spend the morning rafting on the Flathead River or kayaking on Lake McDonald. In the afternoon we'll travel to the East Side of the Park with a stop at the quaint town of East Glacier and some stunning scenic overlooks.
Day 4
Logan Pass
Logan Pass is the Heart of Glacier National Park. Situated right on the Continental Divide, this area offers great hiking and wild life viewing opportunities. Hike to scenic Hidden Lake Overlook, or part of the famous Highline Trail. Keep an eye out for mountain goats, big horn sheep, hoary marmots and maybe even a grizzly!
Day 5
St Mary's Valley
Hike along St. Mary's Lake, through thick forests and past cascading creeks  to St Mary's and Virginia Falls. Or take a scenic boat ride/hiking combo tour to the same spot. Either way, you'll love these astonishing views of the mountain peaks, waterfalls, and greenish blue lakes!
Day 6
Many Glaciers
Nicknamed Little Switzerland, the Many Glaciers area gives us yet another chance to experience snowcapped peaks, pristine lakes, and beautiful alpine meadows. Hike the Swiftcurrent Nature Trail, or for a bigger challenge, try hiking to Josephine or Grinnell Lakes. We also recommend the scenic horseback ride, or renting a kayak for an hour or two, or relaxing on the Lodge porch!
Day 7
Return to Spokane between 10-12noon

About our Bus:
The interior of our buses are extremely unconventional - In a good way! With the seats removed, our buses have been converted into lounge areas complete with pillows, a stereo system and an ice chest for beverages. As night falls and we return from another exciting day of adventure, the tables and couches convert into comfy cozy bus-beds. There you can do a little light reading from our bus-library, play some cards with your friends while listening to groovy bus tunes on the bus-wide sound system or drift off to sleep while we cruise on down the road. By morning, our drivers will have delivered us to the next wonderful place to explore, wherever it may be!
