It's our first full day in Glacier NPK. We're staying in Apgar Village on the west side of the park. The main attraction in Glacier is the Going To The Sun Road. We're "lucky" to be visiting in the midst of a multi-year construction project to repair and rebuild the road. We are actually lucky because there are free shuttles in service to minimize the number of private automobiles on the road and reduce construction delays.
We had a shuttle bus to ourselves on the trip to Logan Pass. Mr. Purse enjoyed taking in the views as he didn't have to drive. Upon arriving at the Pass, we hiked to the Hidden Lake overview through alpine meadows. We heard and saw this little guy about halfway through. I believe he is a marmot. We also saw a few mountain goats clinging to the surrounding cliffs.
The third photo is an example of the many superb vistas we soaked up on our walk on top of the world. Logan Pass straddles the continental divide.
