Day Hikes Trail Maps for Glacier National Park. Lake McDonald Area covers from Apgar to Avalanche. The Howe Lake Trail appears on the Lake McDonald Area as it is on the western side of Howe Ridge. Howe Ridge is the burnt ridge above the western shore of Lake McDonald. The Logan Pass, St. Mary and Many Glacier Area Trail Map is huge. In the Day Hike section I have divided it up into Logan Pass Area, starting at Avalanche and going to Sunrift Gorge. The St Mary Area only contains two hikes but the map connects the St Mary entrance with the Many Glacier Entrance. Finally the Many Glacier Area, is one of the most concentrated areas for hikes in Glacier National Park. The Two Medicine Trail Map also contains a large number of trailheads in a small area. The trailheads are in a small area, the hikes cover a lot of ground. The North Fork Area Trail Map covers from the Inner North Fork Road and continues almost to the Canadian Border near Kintla Lake. The map links above are from Day Hikes in Glacier. This brochure is free but it is ONLY available at Glacier National Park Visitor Centers. |

"There was a time when I had thought that a mountain pass was a depression. It is not. A mountain pass is a place where the impossible becomes barely possible. It is a place where wild game has, after much striving, discovered that it may get from one mountain valley to another. Along these game trails men have built new paths. Again and again we rode through long green valleys, the trail slowly rising until it had left timber far below. Then at last we confronted a great rock wall, a seemingly impassable barrier. Up this, by infinite windings, back and forward went the trail. At the top was the pass." |
