Trains still arrive here.  Glacier Park Lodge  Glacier Park Lodge  Glacier Park Lodge  Glacier Park Lodge Veranda St. Mary Lake Hidden Lake trail at Logan Pass Grizzly Bear Mountain Goat Logan Pass is at the top of the Going to the Sun Road. The pass provides an excellent vantage point to view wildlife. We saw a Grizzly Bear on a nearby trail and a Mountain Goat on the roof of the visitor center. There are 33 Red Buses in Glacier Park. Built in 1939, the buses were refurbished in 2000 by putting the original body onto Ford F350 truck chassis. Each seat has Pendleton "Red Bus" lap blanket.    "Jammers" act as driver and Red Bus tour guide. It's a great way to see the park. Views from the Red Bus Views from the Red Bus Views from the Red Bus
