One last Friday before the 4th of July! We’re almost half way through (unofficial) summer. I can’t believe it. Random.org selected Alyson, Elizabeth G, and Jena C as the winners of the Happy Landings giveaway. Congrats, ladies!
On Monday, my sisters and their boyfriends got to Montana for a summer visit. Along with hiking and swimming, we decided to take a trip out on the boat.
Ben and I have boated out here before, but it was a first for my family. Getting ready at the boat launch and they were already excited about the views.
On either side, you’re usually surrounded by 200 to 300 foot tall rock cliffs. Hence the canyon in the name. Haha. Different areas have been hollowed out, leaving behind cool caves,
sloped rocks,
and spires.
Many inlets to explore.
And sweeping views when coming out.
Yep, fun family outings keep me calm.
Aw looks so fun! I miss our boat, my parents sold it after we went out to college. It looks very different from our foresty lakes in New England!
Wow! Breathtaking! It really amazes me how beautiful and DIFFERENT every part of the country is. Is the water cold? Could you swim in it? It just looks so inviting to me.
Hey Julia!
The water wasn’t super warm, but on a hot day it definitely felt nice. However, because the walls are so steep, it’s hard to find a good place to swim. It’s not your average lake.
Thanks!

It looks so pretty!! Amazing there’s a lake between all those rocks
What a beautiful lake! I’ve never been west before, but one day I’d love to!
