Daxx Nielsen of Cheap Trick @ 2025 New Orleans Jazz Fest

Tonight I will get to see a band for the fifth time live that was also my third concert ever–way back in 1983.

Near Upper Two Medicine Lake (Glacier National Park)

Our Sinopah boat tour captain said that if we took the trail to Upper Two Medicine Lake, we would find a “pond” just before the lake that usually has a moose in it. This looked more like another lake than a pond to me, and sure enough there is a moose in there. Unfortunately, I only had my 16-50mm lens, so no close ups of the moose. This pond, Two Medicine Lake, and Lower Two Medicine Lake are all fed by the same Two Medicine Creek that begins out of Upper Two Medicine Lake.

The mountain in the foreground on the right is Rising Bull Ridge and the one behind it in the center is Mt. Rockwell.

I walked part of the PCT to get to Ruffey Lakes and had this view along the way.
