I've never traveled to a national park until this visti for my 50th birthday. My boyfriend has been many times and says there are 2 types of people- those who feel a deep connection and those who just see a ditch and move on.. I am definitely one who feels a deep connection. I loved the contrast of the small tree to the enormity of the canyon. As soon as we got home we made plans to visit Glacier National Park this summer. I am hooked!
