Logan Pass Visitor Center

The Logan Pass Visitor Center spans two levels within a single-story structure, featuring a lower Fireplace Room and an upper Exhibit Room at 6,646 feet elevation.

The center emerged from the Mission 66 program between 1963 and 1966, designed by Cecil J. Doty and Burt L. Gewalt to modernize national park facilities.

The building represents a shift from traditional rustic architecture to modern design in national parks, incorporating native stone and timber construction methods.

The facility provides restrooms, shuttle services, hiking information, maps, park newspapers, and a selection of books and souvenirs for visitors exploring Glacier National Park.

Located at the continental divide crossing point, the center remains inaccessible from October to May due to extreme weather conditions at its high elevation position.
