Going-To-The-Sun Road and Logan's Pass - August 2018



 Going-to-the-Sun Road, Glacier National Park, Montana. 
This was one of the things we wanted to do since we moved here, and finally, the time was right! 
In case you don't know what this special road is, in short, it's a spectacular pass that cuts through Glacier National Park from east to west crossing the continental divide. It was finished in 1932 and has wide and varied scenery on either side of a well kept highway that is 50 miles long.   It was an exceedingly beautiful, drive. 
At the crest of the pass there is a stop which is called Logan's Pass. We had lunch there and did the hike, which was a nice boardwalk path much of the way.  According to the boys in this family it was "Mom's kind of walk" and it absolutely was my kind of hike 😝.  Enough people on the path to scare away any kind of bears, also enough people to make it interesting (and a little social) and flat enough to keep it exhaustion free. Perfection. 


























 On the way back to the campsite we stopped at a random campground with a beach for a dip.  It was in the national park.  Beautifully clear water.
