Hiking the East Glacier Trail

ok... i know this is gross, but when we went hiking we saw this and didnt know if it was
dog or bear poop...we figured out that it was bear poop...so that means that there was once
a bear where we were standing.........scary.........

This is the rushing river that eventually flows into a huge waterfall; (not the one you see us putting our hands under,,the one by the glacier)...This was also the end of our hike where we sat down and ate sandwiches...Then we hiked all the way back to where we started...This was like a 4 mile hike overall...
This glacier is named the Mendenhall Glacier... Its close enough that we can actually walk to it from our house..
This waterfall is named A.J Falls....If you look closely you can see the rainbow...
This is my mom when she was putting her hand under A.J Falls. she was getting all wet from it...
This is me...I got water from A.J Falls and drank it..the water tasted cold and fresh...I also got wet from it..
This is a picture of the mountain that was beside the Mendenhall Glacier...and you can see the glacier on the side..
