Photos: Fall Colors in Glacier National Park

Each bend along Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park offers a unique perspective, particularly in the fall when fiery red underbrush, burnt-orange aspens and lemon-lime larch overshadow the jagged peaks and glacial valleys. This weekend offers the last chance of the season to drive to Logan Pass on Glacier National Park’s iconic Going-to-the-Sun Road. Although the east side of the road has already closed, the west side remains open through Oct. 18.
