Cost $65
The geologic features one can see along The Highline trail offer stunning glimpses of time in Glacier’s history. Our many vantage points provide spectacular views of the classic glacial landscape. Along the hike we will make several stops to examine the billion-year-old sedimentary rocks, describe the processes of mountain-building and the further action of recent glacial activity. Flora and fauna abound on this trail, and wildlife encounters often upstage any discussion of geology.
