What an amazing experience it was driving along "Going-to-the-Sun" Road in Glacier National Park, MT! 
The area was designated as a national park of America in 1910. Since then, a number of hotels and chalets were constructed by the Great Northern Railway. By 1932 work was completed on the Going-to-the-Sun (GTTS) Road, later designated a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark, which provided greater accessibility for automobiles into the heart of the park. The road is basically narrow - especially west side of Logan Pass- because the road is based on what was constructed in the early 20th century. It was a kind of thrilling experience to drive on the narrow road beside the massive rock walls!

The highest point on GTTS Road is called Logan Pass that is located along the Continental Divide. The west and east sides of the Continental Divide have the difference in the weather system and that gives the park a wide variety of vegetation.

Driving eastbound from Lake McDonald area to Saint Mary, you'll see the wonderful scenery including; a peaceful river running beside the road;  a sudden view of the mountains at the eye level after a tunnel; the breathtaking scenery of mountains and u-shaped valleys. A bonus is an encounter with a long-horn sheep in a parking area of Logan Pass. 
Enjoy a ride on the world famous road and a great variety of scenery from the passenger's point of view! 

The video was taken in the beginning of August, 2019.
