The Highline Trail, the icon of hiking in Glacier National Park, was finally opened for use last week.

Also last week, the park began offering shuttle services, making it possible for hikers to make end-to-end trips without worrying about car shuttles. Schedules are posted at park visitor centers. , DataTimes
