Flathead Food Tour

Bigfork

Of late, I have not spent much time exploring towns while in Flathead Valley.  Whitefish and Kalispell are both very cute but are a little too big for me when I’m flying solo.  They would be perfect if I were to return with friends to be a tourist.  But since I wasn’t being a tourist, and I had been there twice before, I didn’t linger.

That said, it was time to do something aside from hike and take cover in the air-conditioning, so I started my day in Bigfork, after camping nearby at a trailhead off Jewel Basin Road.

HAVE A TASTE!

Day 252 – In Flathead Indian Country

Day 252 of Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways

Relative to yesterday, we had a slow day, including a slow start.  I was blessed with a marvelous migraine and had to take Petey to the vet for a puncture wound.  Once we finally bid farewell to Melinda in Kalispell, we took Highway 93 south along the western shore of Flathead Lake. The lake is lovely, but not very conducive to old, injured dog activities.

Polson

As a result, we made our first stop at its southern tip in Polson, where I had lunch at Pop’s Grill, one of a few choices in the small town.  After lunch, Petey and I took a stroll through town and down to a park on the edge of Flathead Lake before returning to VANilla. 

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!
