The highline trail starts at Logan Pass, elevation 6646ft. We hiked 7 miles on the trail. This was the highlight of the trip.
The trail starts on a cliff cut.

Marmots are large squirrels
Marmots typically live in burrows (often within rockpiles), and hibernate there through the winter. Most marmots are highly social and use loud whistles to communicate with one another, especially when alarmed.
