Our third day in the wonderful world of Glacier National Park. Today, I set off on my own to hike Iceberg Lake and Ptarmigan Tunnel.

A note that, to visit both Iceberg Lake and Ptarmigan Tunnel in one day was a 24.75km hike that I tracked 7.5 hours. And since I was by myself I moved faster than most people on the trail. This should only be attempted by the physically fit, carrying ample water.<\/p>\n

And since I was in no hurry to catch a timed-boat, I got up slightly later today and began my hike at 9:23am, at the back of Swiftcurrent Motor Inn.
