Hi Gary,
I'm in Port Townsend on the Olympic Penninsula right now.
They don't have a card reader so I can't send photos.
I loved Mt. Rainier and also went to Mt. St. Helens.
Where are you? Hope you are safe and having fun!

Hi Sandy,
I've been hanging out in the Crowsnest Pass area in the Canadian Rockies north of Waterton, Today I think I'm heading back to Waterton for a few days before crossing back into the US.
Hopefully I'll be let back into the US!
Into Canada I got a bit hassled, they searched my car. The guy said they were concerned because I was "rootless" (no obligations that would keep me from potentially staying in Canada.) They gave me a special certificate that said I could not take a job or go to school here, and I would have to leave within 10 days, which is 5 days from now.
Sheesh!
After you headed west, I stayed in the Many Glacier area a few more days, doing all the hikes as far as I could in one day - to two of the same passes as I did from the Going to the Sun road, and Redrock Pass that is further west on the ridge as the "tunnel" (forget the name) towards Lk Elizabeth.
When I get back into the US I'll probably spend a few more days in Glacier then head a bit south into the Bob Marshall Wilderness hopefully doing a two to four day backpack along the "Chinese Wall" that's supposed to be a spectacular part of the Continental Divide Trail.
Then I'll have to decide whether I have time to head south again into Colorado or start heading east. I suspect I will have to go east.

Hi gar bear,
I am using a touch screen at bend Oregon visitor center.
Looking at the town as place to settle some point.
Canada sucks at the border. They hasseled me, too.
I just finished circumnavigating the Olympic peninsula.
More later and photos.
Sandy
