Quick Facts

Scenic View/Photo Spot

This is the closest the trail gets to Exit Glacier. The sign shows where Exit Glacier was located in 2010. Very few plants are growing here as this area has only been exposed recently from underneath Exit Glacier. Stop here to feel the powerful katabatic winds blowing off of Exit Glacier and to observe the land as it is uncovered due to glacial retreat.
