More Glacier pictures

The famous "Weeping Wall"
Named because water seeps out of it and pours onto the road all the time. It sounds as thunderous as a waterfall and if you drive close enough to the wall, your vehicle will get a pounding good wash!

"Jammers" were built in 1936-1939 for National Parks to use for tourism. In 1989, some of them were renovated at a cost of $800,000 and are still in use today. They feature 17 seats and a canvas top that can be rolled back so you can get a convertible view of the park. I'd like to ride in one before I die. I guess I'll have to go back, won't I? ;-)
