July 25-30, 2016: Glacier National Park (Montana)

The centerpiece of this trip was a 14-mile hike along the Garden Wall on the Highline Trail, starting at Logan Pass and ending at "The Loop" on Going-to-the-Sun Road. The first half of these 200 photos are from that hike; the rest are from various other spots in Glacier N.P. and in Waterton Lakes N.P. in Alberta.
