The first part of our ride through Glacier along St. Mary Lake. That curve just ahead in the distance, well once we made the turn there was a wall of wind that stopped us in our tracks. 
Fun shadows. Because the sun was rising.
On our ascent, John P. attacking the hill. You can't tell from the picture, but the guy has a freakishly high cadence.
They're a bit hard to see, but there are mountain goats!
We were at this sign for all of 20 seconds; it was too cold and windy and we needed to start our descent to warmer and and less windier conditions. Also, please note the gray long johns I'm wearing over my biking shorts and the horrendous nature of the whole get-up, which is part of the fun. 
Birdwoman falls I believe. We also biked past Weeping Falls, which basically spills onto the road. Pretty when you're in a car and cute when the water splashes on your windshield, terrifying as you see a slick road ahead while moving at over 30mph on two narrow tires. 
On the way down, we had to pull over to warm up our hands. At least it was scenic.
While at the Montana Vortex of a tourist trap, there was another giant chair. An appropriate bookend to the giant adirondack chair back in Vermont.
