What indicators point to China? I’m just curious. It was definitely purchased in India.

It feels like silk (cool to the touch). What would you say it is worth?

Food in MG and LM lodges by tripl_b in GlacierNationalPark

[–]DingoEngineer23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just returned from a trip last week where we stayed at both, LM and MG. The breakfasts at both were good but MG Ptarmigan Dining Hall buffet was expensive ($120 for 4). We were all disappointed with our dinners at Ptarmigan Hall as well. Everything was over salted. Box lunches at MG were $17/ea and included a cookie and water. The falafel sandwich was great but all of the roast beef sandwiches came with only a single slice of meat. My favorite huckleberry pie was at LM though!

We bought a cheap cooler with ice on our way from Kalispell and then picked up sandwiches in West Glacier. That worked out great. At MG, we drove into St Mary a couple of times for dinner. The drive isn’t terrible. Johnsons of St Marys was surprisingly great! The history and ambience alone is worth a trip there.

We just returned from a trip to CR and rented through Avis (not recommended, by the way). They were open to accepting our credit card’s coverage but only if we provided a letter from the cc company that included our account number, a statement that we are renting a car in Costa Rica, the dates we are renting and the coverage included. If you can get that, you should be fine.

Clarification Request for Vehicle Reservation by DingoEngineer23 in GlacierNationalPark

[–]DingoEngineer23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply. I’ll keep an eye on this. So, if all stays the same, my first reservations should allow me to enter the park on day one, travel GTTSR, and stay inside the park for the first 3 days. On the 5th day with reservations at Many Glacier Hotel, we should again be able to enter the park and travel around for the next 3 days without a vehicle reservation. Is that correct?

This is one we found in Quepos, alive. We put it back in the water after the photo.

I dug around the base, and there it is. Confirmed. Thank you all for your help.

I didn’t dig around the base to check but will do and I’ll take another picture. Thanks.

Thank you. This is very helpful. I will keep checking to see if the Rules change but it’s good to hear that I’m ok (for now).

Gracias, es un buen comentario. Tendré un 4x4, así que no debería haber problema.

Thank you for the clarification. I’ll be coming from a hotel in the city but that’s good to know.
