Description
As the Going-To-The-Sun Road climbs toward the continental divide, driving is slow around sharp corners along steep edges. You don't want to make a mistake here! The burn area in the valley is from a historic fire many years ago, still very visible here on the western side of Glacier National Park, Montana.

What dizzying heights you've captured. Reminds me of when I was young and our family took driving vacations.
Mick Anderson replied:
Dizzying is right! One of the most amazing roads I've ever driven :) Thanks, Mary!

Wow, what a great image, Mick! I've been on that road and wish I could go again, probably too old now, LOL! Quite a challenge to drive! Sorry to hear there was a burn, but it looks like new growth is returning. What a contrast between the foreground and background!
Mick Anderson replied:
Yes, that background is what drew me to my camera's viewfinder at this stop :)

Mick Anderson replied:
Thank you Elizabeth! Photographing that road is as challenging as driving it!! :)
