We had planned to leave Glacier for our vagabond road trip that day, but this catastrophe had screwed up all our plans. Maggie had broken her leg (although we didn’t know it yet), and we would instead take her to the hospital in Cut Bank.
“I don’t think that’s a good idea at all,” said Helen, sleet was coming down and gathering on her wide brimmed hat. “By the time you get back from Cut Bank the Many Glacier road will likely no longer be passable. The snow is coming today and they won’t start clearing the road until it stops. If you have plans to leave this week, your best bet is to just leave.” Glacier had enough of us and we had no choice, the snow was chasing us out. It was September 25th, 2013, the day we left Many Glacier.”
