Here's a picture
taken from one of the many lookouts on the road. In a couple of
spots the road is only one lane as workers repair parts which
have fallen off the side. It's scary meeting a timid driver who
insists on straddling the center line, because there's no place
to go.
"The
Going-to-the-Sun Road was completed in 1932 and is a spectacular
52 mile, paved two-lane highway that bisects the park east and
west. It is the width of Glacier, crossing the Continental Divide
at 6,646-foot-high Logan Pass. It passes through almost every
type of terrain in the park, from large glacial lakes and cedar
forests in the lower valleys to windswept alpine tundra atop the
pass. "
