Hidden Lake overlook: It's a short hike from the Logan Pass Visitor Center. The parking lot fills up so get there early or take the bus. You're almost certain to see mountain goats. They aren't bothered by human visitors and it's not unusual for a family of goats to saunter through the middle of a bunch of hikers. I've met them on the trail and had them pass me an arms length away! I wouldn't try to approach them or try to take a selfie with them but don't be suprised if they get real close on their own. There's a fair chance you'll see bighorn sheep up here but probably not closer than 100 yards.

The Highline Trail: Also accessible from the Logan Pass Visitor Center. Beautiful wildflower carpets! You might see goats, bighorn sheep, maybe a bear, and there's a place hikers rest with a view of Haystack Butte where hoary marmots will try to steal trail mix from un-attended backpacks. Don't feed 'em!

The best place in the park to view grizzly bears is the parking lot at Many Glacier on the east side of the park. In the evening the bears will forage on the hillside north of the lot and the rangers will often set up spotting scopes so you can get a good look.

Look for bald eagles in the treetops around any of the lakes or streams.
