Plowing Going-to-the-Sun Road 2022

Crews clear the final stretches of Going-to-the-Sun Road, install guard rails and dig out the Logan Pass Visitor Center. The famed alpine byway will open no sooner than July 13, making this year’s opening one of the latest in the road’s 90-year history. Hunter D'Antuono | Flathead Beacon
