Aww, thank you so much for watching!!!!! It was so fun make!

Thanks for this video! I live in Wisconsin but since visiting Glacier I've long considered grabbing a Bible, food, and water bottle and just disappearing hiking in Glacier for days at a time. Money restrictions have prevented me from doing so so I thank you for allowing me to live somewhat vicariously!

Thank for sharing! How many miles round trip and how long did it take you?

Thanks for watching!!! We clocked 6.8 round trip to the false summit, 1800 ft elevation. Hike time around 3 hours 1/2 hours and we weren’t in any kind of a rush…did a lot of talking and laughing along the hike at a leisurely pace. It was a great hike! It was 2.1 miles to the pass which was actually one of the most beautiful views, and then just under a mile to the start of the dragons tail!

Hey! I’m working in Glacier for the summer and I’m wanting to do this trail, how do you know exactly where to turn off from Hidden Lake trail?!

if you find out holla!! going in mid aug would like to do this

And also did you use All trails to navigate this?!

It looks like is on the opposite side of the highline trail

I loved your footage! It did, however, not address the part where you need to register your trip off the Hidden Lake Overlook Trail with the ranger at Logan Pass (not Logan's...random possessifiying is killing English). Of course you did that, otherwise you would have been "those people" who abuse the NP access requirements and account for those people who go off on their own and never get found. Surely your doing that should have been part of your 'epic' video, right?

I believe you only need a permit if overnight backcountry camping, not day hiking. That said it is always advisable (though not required) to let rangers know if you are going on a seldom used trail and your expected time of return for safety purposes. This trail is used by climbers to access the mountain and is not prohibited to use. Just not the typical trail people go on. I could be wrong and if you find something official that says otherwise I would like to see it since I'm planning on doing this trail at the end of summer.
