Epic Labor Day in Glacier National Park: Jackson Glacier, Mt James, & More
We packed a full Labor Day weekend into Glacier National Park: three days, 43 miles, and 11,000 feet of elevation gain. Day 1: Hike/run up to see a glacier (the highlight for us!). Day 2: Pushed to a mountain summit with huge views. Day 3: Snuck in one more hike before heading home. A jam-packed trip filled with big climbs, breathtaking alpine scenery, and sore legs by the end. This is Backyard Montana’s version of a long weekend! Don’t forget to subscribe if you enjoy seeing Montana’s trails and backcountry from our eyes.
