We went about 7 miles round trip--the full hike goes 11.6 miles from the top of Logan Pass down to an area called the loop--there is a shuttle system to get back.

And Glacier is basically the prettiest. It's certainly the most dramatic--most of the mountains aren't really THAT high, but they are so sheer that they look really imposing. Pictures don't really do the place justice. You should for sure go see it yourself. ;-)
