2018 Hike to Sperry Chalet

Post by llholmes1948 »

Link to a recent article by Chris Peterson in the Hungry Horse News about the hike to Sperry Chalet after the Sprague Fire.

I recall that during our hike to the Chalet in 2001 a light drizzle started around Crystal Ford but because we were in the trees, we didn't really need to break out any rain gear. I guess that would not be the case now:

He is a great writer. I read his other two articles. He has a great way of describing things. Glad I have no need to do that Sperry hike to/from Lake McDonald altho the thot of wildflowers and songbirds is very appealing.

Great article from the Missoulian on the present situation at Sperry Chalet with numerous photos. The goats need to be washed:
