Apgar Lookout: Early season jaunt a great way to get in hiking shape
The Apgar Mountain Lookout Trail in Glacier National Park is one of those trails to hike first thing in the season. It’s easy to get to, and it’s a good conditioning trail, which is to say it exposes you to elevation gain in a hurry over its 3.5 miles.
It’s been years since I hiked it, but since I’m recuperating from heart surgery, the boy and I gave it a go on a bright sunny Saturday recently.
The trail starts out at the foot of Apgar Mountain at the end of the dirt Quarter Circle Bridge Road.
