Some of the things we wanted to do while in Yellowstone and Glacier were just not possible because of an obstacle. Snow. In June -- an anomaly for us Northeasterners. But it is a possibility in the higher elevations out West. While it was a minor annoyance that we couldn't hike Mount Washburn in Yellowstone or drive the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier, we still had an incredible time. I'd rather see some relief from drought -- as they've been experiencing in states like Wyoming and Montana -- and miss out on a few sights than deny the area some much needed precipitation. How timely that the New York Times published an article about this mixed blessing, check it out here.
