Event comments

PPSF - You'l pass through open meadows with mind-blowing views of Grinnell Falls, Lower Grinnell Lake, the Continental Divide, Angel Wing and Mount Gould. You should be able to spot mountain goats and bighorn sheep along the mountainsides, and possibly grizzlies and black bear below the trail. Sometimes moose are also spotted in this area. Be aware that even though this trail is heavily traveled, its also a prime grizzly area, so make plenty of noise when you come around blind bends in the trail, especially if your hiking in the early morning hours. You should always bring a can of bear spray when hiking in Glacier, especially on this trail.
