We start off early at the loop trailhead on the west side of Glacier National Park. We hike 4 miles (& 2,200 feet) to the Granite Park Chalet and then join the Highline Trail. We branch off on the Grinnell Glacier Overlook Trail that is just under one mile long - but it is steep and narrow in spots. From the overlook you can see Upper Grinnell Lake, Grinnell Glacier, Salamander Glacier, Mount Gould, many other peaks and even back all the way to Lake McDonald. Our route was just over 12 miles and 3.800 feet of elevation gain. Enjoy!

Great Video! Wife and I did the Grinnell Glacier trail from the hotel up to the glacier and back. We got a late start at around 11 am as we had to drive all the way from Kalispell . The going to the sun road was closed at the time. We only stayed at the glacier a short while as we wanted to get back before dark, and just made it back at 6:30pm. It was an epic trip for us. Seeing your hike, makes me want to visit Glacier National Park again. Thanks for posting this!!

Absolutely love these videos from Nolan Ventures! They were great for planning our trip to Glacier. We hiked the Grinnell Glacier Overlook this past Friday, 8/9/24, coming from Logan Pass to the Granite Park Chalet before heading back on the trail to the Overlook, then back down again to the Chalet before hiking to the Loop. Just over 15 miles in a little over 9 hours of hiking. The hike up the trail to the Overlook was beyond brutal, the toughest one mile section of trail we did all week! Not for the faint of heart to be sure but the pay-off at the top is worth it. Make sure to hike up to the right side of the saddle for the real money shot! Can't wait to make another trip to Glacier, maybe meet the Nolan's along the way! Thanks

Mid August ‘23 came from Logan Pass to Granite Chalet. Then backtracked to the junction then up to Grinnell Glacier Overlook. That .6 up was a beast with 900’ of vert on an 88 degree day, but worth it!

Nice videos (just came across your channel)!! Planning a Glacier trip for next year (Aug 2024) - can hardly wait for this beauty. What camera(s) are you using for your action footage? I'm thinking of getting one for our outings, and to use in our apiary.

Thanks for the video! I’m going to glacier in July and want to do this trail. Forgive my ignorance but that last stretch going to Grinnell overlook doesn’t look too bad in the video. I know you said it’s steep which I definitely can see but I read that the last .8 miles was extremely strenuous and sketchy. Would you say this is true? I know video doesn’t translate to reality sometimes and I just want to be prepared. Thanks

If it’s dry and clear it’s just strenuous. If it’s wet then it’s strenuous and can be intimidating for some - it is relative. Enjoy it!!

Lovely video! Trying to Decide if we should do this out and back or go back down highline trail to Logan’s pass and take a shuttle back to the loop. Any feedback on this?
@nolanventures473

If you are not doing the out and back, start at Logan pass and hike to the loop. More downhill that way. We have also done the out and back from Logan pass. Less elevation gain but more miles. Can’t go wrong with any of those options. Enjoy the trails.

what time in the morning did you start, and how long did the trek take? Thanks for sharing!

I don’t like to give time frames to complete hikes. Everyone hikes and enjoys the wilderness at their own pace. Some stop for breaks, lunch, pictures, video etc. Just like everyone runs the mile in a different time. Some can run a 4 minute mile and for some it takes 10 minutes. Therefore I believe it is an inaccurate and flawed way of measuring a hike. Rather: I give mileage, elevation gain, and trail conditions so you can gauge for yourself. That is a better way to estimate your hike. I hope this is helpful and thank you for watching.

That looks like a “puffer”. But, you have an excuse to not keep up with Kim…you have to go slower and stop often to make good footage. Haha. Nice video.
