Historic Photos From Piegan Pass

Below are two of photos of tourists at Piegan Pass in the early 1930s. As discussed in my book, Ramble On, multi-day guided horseback tours along trails constructed by the Great Northern Railway, such as the Piegan Pass Trail, were the primary method of seeing Glacier National Park before the Going-to-the-Sun Road was completed in 1932.

You could make a strong argument that Piegan Pass is somewhat overlooked by modern-day hikers, who tend to gravitate towards its nearby neighbors; Siyeh Pass and the Highline Trail. In my opinion, that might be a mistake! The Piegan Pass Trail also offers stunningly beautiful scenery - without the crowds.
