Description
A heartbreaking family trip to Glacier National Park ended in tragedy when a falling rock fatally struck 72-year-old Rex Schowengerdt, who was with his wife on the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Though rare, such incidents underscore the park’s rugged dangers. Rex, a devoted outdoorsman and family man, taught his loved ones to savor life’s simple joys — especially in nature.

A GoFundMe has been launched to honor his memory and support the family during this difficult time.
