That place is called sheep mountain. And we just drove past a place called sheep mountain lodge which is a bunch of cabins in front of that mountain. Looks pretty cool.

That was another stop.

it’s starting to sprinkle a little and I’m not talking about bodily functions.

Back at the glacier. We went past it to kill time because we have the 1pm time slot but didn’t know that until we got to Palmer 

 

[Saint Greg]

It’s 12:25pm here for those not in the know.

You have to have a guide to go on this glacier. The land to get to the glacier is privately owned and natives own the first four miles or so of the glacier and they made that rule do to injuries. I think it’s just a good policy for having people  employed in tourism.

Weather.com says the temp is 61 degrees.  Sounds pretty cool to me (I'm in SC with a current temp of 91) but are you feeling comfortable?

I like it but I’m not as sensitive to cold as a lot of people. I’ve been mostly dealing with 100+ temps.

We stopped here to sign our release forms

BF bought this shirt when we were in Alaska last year. Glad you stopped at Glacier Brewhouse one of our favorites, had a great piece of halibut there. Nice looking Air B&B and looks centrally located which is great. Enjoying your travels, waiting for the price to drop on the last cruise of the season out of Seattle and then will hop on it, as we love the beauty in Alaska.
