Bellevue Peak May 27, 2017

Well we had our little father and son's outing this year.  But this year my youngest daughter tagged along and so I decided we'd do a little easier hike, since she is only 7.  So I decided on Bellevue.  Most of Waterton is still under a fair amount of snow at the higher elevations, but this peak is not.  We made pretty good time and practically followed the same route we took 3 years ago.  The day was amazing and there was just a couple sections where the wind picked up but it was sunny all day and nice and warm.  The only downside of the day was when we got home we found 8 ticks in my daughters hair and I found 3 in my cloths!

Some of the first flowers of the year

There were definitely a few in this meadow

My daughter wanted me to take a picture of every type of flower we saw, some pictures turned out better than others

Snow covered Ruby Ridge and Blakiston

Same picture except with a dead tree in it
