Gobsmacked is a real word, look it up. It means “overwhelmed by wonder” or “utterly astonished” and it perfectly describes how we felt getting our first glimpse of the North Cascades near Glacier Washington. Eric and I have been to some beautiful places, but only a few have rendered us speechless. Lake Superior, Faroe Islands and the west coast of Ireland make our list of gobsmackable places — and now Glacier Washington.
