Today's hike was a good one. I've taken Wednesday's off this summer to hike so this was this weeks installment of Wednesday hiking. We had wanted to go to Many Glacier, but because of a closed trail we headed to Logan's Pass and started up Lunch Creek and did Pollock/Bishops Cap. The hiking was great, the only downside was that because of forest fires west of here, the air was a little smoky thus not as clear as it could have been. My favorite of the two summits today was Bishops Cap, it is quite the peak, reminds me a lot of Mt. Galeway. There was some pretty good climbing involved today but nothing too challenging.

| This marmot was pretty high up, only about 50 feet from the top |
 |
| Near the top there was this narrow crack we had to climb up |

| I posted this picture on Social Media and had an backlash from parents, but this was a trick shot, the ground is actually only about 4 feet below |
 |
| Another crack we had to climb up, I had to leave my back pack as I couldn't fit with it on |
 |
| Summit number two for today Bishops Cap |
 |
| New flower I haven't seen before hiking |
 |
| More Bear Grass a plenty in Glacier Park as well |
