Showers at swiftcurrent

Are there pay showers at swiftcurrent? We are staying in st. Mary and would like to eat dinner st mg hotel after hockey ref hike. If we can shower at swiftcurrent,that would save us drive time to st Mary. I know they used to have them but just wanted to check and make sure they still do. Thanks Dan

Re: Bears hump

Thanks, Al. Looks like crypts lake trail is open. May try that one if bears hump isn’t open. Was considering doing kootenai lakes trip/ bears hump in one day vs. crypts lake.

Thanks again!

Re: Belly river

Thanks for your responses. We may try it from customs to mg due to elevation gain being slightly less.
Thanks for your insight!

Belly river

Question for the board:

Wife and I and some other couples will be in the park early September. Considering belly river trail as a point to point hike: either enter at swift current and exit at customs beneath Canadian border or vice versa. What do you recommend?

Thanks,

Dan

Does anyone have an update on the fires inside the park? I've noticed the smoke hasn't been bad since the rain came through on Sunday.
