Logan Pass, Mountain pass in Glacier National Park, Montana
Logan Pass is a mountain pass in Glacier National Park located at 6,625 feet (2,018 meters) elevation, marking the highest point reachable by car on the Going-to-the-Sun Road. The area features alpine meadows and rocky peaks with viewpoints looking out in all directions.
The mountain road was completed in 1932, making this pass accessible by car for the first time. The route was named for Major William R. Logan, an early superintendent of the national park.
The visitor center displays show how Native American tribes have long understood and used these mountains. You can see this connection today through the exhibits and the land itself.
The pass is typically open from mid-June to mid-October, though snow and weather conditions can shift the exact dates. Parking fills up quickly in the morning, so arriving early or visiting late in the afternoon helps avoid crowds.
Mountain goats are native to this area and often graze on the alpine meadows near the pass. They are used to people but remain wild animals and should be observed from a distance.
