Glacier National Park Part 1

On June 27th the Bateman Clan headed to Montana and Glacier National Park. We stayed in Whitefish, Montana - just outside the park and hometown of our friend Erik Kaltschmidt. While there we drove around looking at the beautiful sights, did a little hiking to Avalanche Lake, saw some wildlife - mostly goats, threw rocks in the water - Toby's favorite part, went on a helicopter ride, and had a ton of fun with family.

Emily carried Toby for part of the Avalanche Lake hike while Zach went back to the car to get the hiking backpack. Toby also walked quite a bit of it on his own.
