Exit Glacier/ Harding Ice Field

Well it's a for sure thing to do on anyones list as to see a glacier that close. let alone hike 4.1 miles to the top of the glacier to look out at the Huge Harding Icefields. Wow i pushed myself for that verticle hike and the payoff was well worth it. The way up we saw no wildlife until the top where there was mtn goats feeding and on the trail on the way back was fresh black/ brown bear poop. Scary. a little further down we ran into a very photogenic marmut. however you spell it. there like a huge squirrel.I enjoyed that beautiful day and would love to take my mom and dad up there but will have to wait till next year.
