Day 15 of 2019 Western US Tour, July 26, Highline and Garden Wall Trail

Our sixth and last day in Glacier National Park.
My plan of the day was to hike Highline and Garden Wall Trail, probably the second most popular day hike route in Glacier National Park, behind Grinnell Glacier Trail. And there would be spectacular views of Grinnell Glacier at the top of Garden Wall, encore to what I explored four days ago.
