Kurt and I spent 4 days (30 Jul-2 Aug 09) camping and hiking in Glacier National Park. I had planned a few day hikes for this summer into areas I had not yet reached. At the top of my list Iceberg Lake. I would not be disappointed. The trail is one of the most beautiful I have ever hiked, with Ptarmigan Wall towering above on the right and spectacular wild flower meadows and vallies to the left. The trail itself is worth the hike and with Iceberg lake at it conclusion it is simply a must for anyone wanting to hike into the park. Iceberg lake was not very big but it sits in a rocky bowl and chunks of ice dot the mirror surface of the lake. It is prime for reflection photos and creates a very relaxing place to let yourself drift into thought.
