Caption: We'd been planning the Steller Glacier meet up for a while and I'd anticipated wildflower laden late summer hikes with epic mountain views...just like my Montana boys, @JWFphotography and @andyaustinphoto, promised.
And other than the fact that the park was on fire we were off to a good start Friday night..

Caption: But things don't always go as planned and Friday night's torrential downpours and lightening storms turn summer into winter pretty darn quick.
Caption: But nobody seemed to mind...
