Logan Pass
Where?
Montana
Why?
Logan Pass can be found along the Continental Divide at 6,646 ft, cutting through the Rocky Mountains inside Glacier National Park. The pass is home to grizzly bears, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, glacier lilies, wildflowers, and alpine plants. Two popular hiking trails meet at the pass, so you can continue your climb on foot if you like. Just bring a picnic basket, because there is nowhere to buy food in the area.
Things To See And Do:
- Check with the visitor center at the top of the pass for information on hiking trails and wildlife activity.
- McDonald Creek is an incredible color of blue, with striking clarity.
- The Weeping Wall is a sight worth seeing and perfect for a hot day when the mist cools you down.
- St Mary Lake makes for a fantastic first or last view, depending on how you choose to travel the road.
