Another weekend, another hiking trip. Jess got off work a little early so we took off for an afternoon hiking trip to Glen Lake just outside of Victor, MT. The drive up to the trailhead was kind of a long one. It’s 10 miles off the main road. You have to take old logging roads up to it. Along the way we saw a bear! It was a little bear. It jumped out in front of my truck and ran across the road. It was awesome!
The hike itself was pretty fun. It wound through the mountainside through a bunch of old forest fire area. All the trees were burned up and charred. It was a weird look but I found it pretty interesting. Jess hated it. She likes the green. I was fascinated by it. The trail was steep in a few places and we got a good workout on the way in. After a little over 2.7 miles we reached the lake.
I had forgotten to grab the camera on our way out of the house so we had to settle on using the camera on my phone… so the pics aren’t that great… but here they are.

We walked a bit around the lake when we first got there to find a good place to sit down. The place was loaded with pointy rocks. We preferred not to sit on pointy rocks. It was also pretty cold. Since it’s summer, I hadn’t brought anything warm with me so I was feeling a bit of a chill.

Here’s the lovely Mrs. Burson, smiling and resting after a physically demanding hike up to the lake. That’s my hotty right there folks.

And here’s one of the two of us before we headed back down to get out of the cold. Sorry it kind of sucks. The sun was right behind us so everything was getting back lit. You can’t tell it but there’s a really pretty mountain on the other side of the lake. We tried waiting for the sun to go behind a cloud but since the phone sucks as a camera… well, it didn’t work out too well.
We bailed right after the photo was taken because the wind really picked up. I was freezing. On the way back down we got to see a doe. A deer. A female deer.
And now that I’ve gotten an annoying song stuck in your head… I bid you adieu.
