Lake McDonald Lodge

Thought I'd post a few pic's of Lake McDonald Lodge. It's really one of the more homey of the Glacier Park lodges. The lobby is small and very cozy feeling. There is always a fire going in the large fireplace. The lodge was originally built as a hunting lodge, so there are many stuffed animals in the lodge.





























The pic's below are of the General Store at Lake. I love to hang out on this bench with the 'old guy", but I get damned tired of people asking "which one is the dummy"!

Jammer Joe's is the restaurant at Lake. It's not to be confused with the Lodge dining room. Food is much, much different. "Jammer Joe's" are the guys who used to drive the old Red Buses. The buses are the 1934 originals, refurbished by Ford and switched over to propane. Propane out here is only $2.55 per gallon. I'm switching my Ford over ASAP.

Below is a "whistle pig" or Colombian ground Squirrel and her babies. Yep, they look just like a prairie dog.
