| Winter 2009 Climbed with Kelly in the snow right after moving to Montana. The road was closed due to snow, so the hike was considerably longer...and I forgot my snowshoes. Been up multiple times since, great early season hike. | |

| Glad the weather man was wrong. Great day for a hike. Good views, looks like a lot of snow on the higher peaks in the park. | |

| Went up on snowshoes Christmas Eve with my brother. It was foggy when we started in the morning, but by noon when we reached the top, the fog had lifted and there was not a cloud in the sky. Best Christmas ever. | |

| I hiked up to the Apgar Lookout with my sister and her husband. We got a late afternoon start, but the weather was very nice, and we did the whole thing in about 3 hours. | |

| This looked like an interesting hike, so I went. The Going to the Sun Road wasn't open yet past Avalanche, and I didn't have the option of going to the eastern part of the park, so I figured why not get a good view of the lake, which I did. I was the first one up that day; when I was coming down the trail, ALOT of people were heading up it, and this was on a weekday. | |

| Must have had a big wind storm come through. Had to skid two large trees off the road just to get to the parking area. Counted 104 down trees across the trail between the parking lot and the lookout. Disappointed to find the lookout is not at the summit, though just a short jog up from there. | |

| I hiked up this trail with my friend and seasonal co-worker Joe Houck on 7/14/03. Lost touch with Joe and can't seem to find him no matter what I do, but it's a great memory to picture that crazy sweating guy, hiking up on a 90-degree day with a 40-oz. travel mug full of hot coffee, chain-smoking grade F cigarettes, haha. It's also quite humbling to realize that we were two of the last people in this generation to ever see Apgar Mtn. as it was before the Roberts Fire (which would start several days later): lush, green, thick woods lined with ferns offering sparse views through the brush until you reach the top. I returned on 8/5/08 and did the whole round-trip in an hour and 45 minutes. So different I barely recognized it as being the same hike! The top is still the same, and the views are much better now, but it was a very strange feeling returning to such a transformed landscape. | |

| Nice and easy hike good views of the other mountains but didn't like the sound of hearing the other people on the trail. Hiked with Rebelgrizz, Tater, and JFK. | |

| My wife and two sons hiked up the Apgar trail in late May. This was our first "hike" in GNP and the views of Lake McDonald and the surrounding mountains are outstanding. Great beginner hike in Glacier! | |
