Dawson – Pitamakan
—
by
It doesn’t take very long to get out of the trees on the east side of Glacier National Park. The loop, known a Dawson-Pitamakan, that goes through two passes in the Two Medicine area rewards you with breathtaking views mile after mile. One access to the loop is by the Two Medicine entrance station known…
Pitamakan – Dawson via the South Shore Trail 2022
—
by
The Pitamakan-Dawson Loop is one of our favorite hikes in Glacier that we try to do once a year. With the North Shore Trail of Two Medicine Lake closed, we ended up having a slightly longer day doing the South Shore Trail. We donned our running packs to do a faster version of the hike…

Pitamakan / Dawson – 17.9mi / 28.8km The Pitamakan/Dawson hike is a long one, but the beautiful views that await you are worth all the effort. The hike bounces between forests and avalanche chutes as it goes over a ridge of Rising Wolf Mountain. You will pass a beautiful waterfall coming from Sky Lake as…
Pitamakan – Dawson Loop 2017

If you were to ask me which hike is my favorite hike, I probably would tell you the Pitamakan-Dawson Loop. I set out with a group of donors and staff from the Glacier Conservancy to do this loop and the sunny day, fantastic loop, and a boat ride was one for the books. Sinopah Mountain…
Pitamakan Dawson 2014

by
The loop in Glacier National Park that travels through both Pitamakan Pass and Dawson Pass is one of my favorites, if not my very favorite. One is almost guaranteed to see big game, gorgeous lakes, four separate drainages and a ridge walk that’s unparalleled in the Park. The excuse was a mountain goat survey, as…

Dawson Pass – 8.5mi / 13.7km Amazing views and an excellent chance to see bighorn sheep await at Dawson Pass. To keep this hike under 10 miles, take the boat tour across Two Medicine Lake (if starting from the Old Man Lake trailhead, the total trip would be 13 miles). The trail initially is level,…
Pitamakan Pass 2024
—
by
Pitamakan Pass in the Two Medicine area of Glacier National Park straddles two gorgeous drainages filled with stunning lakes and craggy peaks… oh and the huckleberries can be really good too! We rolled up to the trailhead at Pray Lake as the sun was coming over the horizon. Armed with a scope, tripod, and binoculars,…
Climbing Spot Mountain and Red Mountain
—
by
The ridgeline that contains Spot Mountain and Red Mountain is a beautiful behemoth that rarely gets climbed. Kristen and I decided to tackle these two summits in the Two Medicine area of Glacier National Park and we were rewarded with expansive views along this long ridge. It involved a little bit of bushwhacking and some…
Climbing Mount Helen 2023
—
by
While not the most notable summit in Glacier National Park, Mount Helen sits just above Dawson Pass in the Two Medicine area and is a wonderful addition to your day, that is, if you have any gas left in your tank after climbing to the pass. On paper, our plan was to take the boat…
