The journey doesn’t end at the roadside—it begins where the trail disappears into the wild. This guide, with over 200 hiking miles, is your key to creating memories for a lifetime. From the turquoise waters of Avalanche Lake and the shores of Lake McDonald to the remote beauty of the North Fork and Walton regions, this guide leads you deep into the Crown of the Continent on unforgettable day hikes. Written by a local author who has logged 1,000 miles on Glacier’s trails, this is the culminating volume in the unique three-book Glacier National Park series. The author selected every hike to help you experience some of the best that the park offers with confidence, whether you’re seeking an easy lakeside walk, a family adventure, or a challenging mountain trek. Each trail includes distance, elevation gain and loss, estimated hiking time, objective difficulty ratings, trail maps, and stunning color photographs. Woven into the narrative of each hike is the geology, wildlife, ecology, or human history that transforms every hike into a richer experience. An extensive appendix prepares you for the trail with practical guidance on the Ten Essentials, wildlife safety, and choosing hikes that match your abilities—helping you explore safely and responsibly.
