Introduction

Glacier National Park is one of America's most magnificent national parks. In northwestern Montana's Rockies, it features stunning glacial landscapes (glaciers rapidly receding), emerald alpine lakes, the spectacular Going-to-the-Sun Road and rich wildlife — one of the American West's most sought-after destinations. Going-to-the-Sun Road (~80 km) crosses Logan Pass (2,026 m) with magnificent scenery — alpine meadows, waterfalls, glacial lakes and snow peaks. Hidden Lake Trail from Logan Pass often shows mountain goats and marmots. St. Mary Lake and Lake McDonald are the most famous lakes. Glaciers rapidly receding — from ~150 in 1850 to ~26 today. Visiting for Going-to-the-Sun Road is a stunning Montana experience.
