@the.worried.wanderer: ✨ Hiked It, Survived It: Highline Trail ✨ 📍Glacier National Park

🥾 Distance: 12-16 miles, depending on whether you do it point to point vs loop, and if you add on the Grinnell Glacier Overlook Trail 😳 Panic Potential: Medium (mostly imagined) 📈 Incline: Most of the trail was very gradual, except the climb to the Grinnell Lake Overlook. That part was insanely tough! Hiking poles would help for all the loose gravel 
🏔️ Exposure Level: You’re high up and there’s a lot of cliffy sections, but the trail is pretty wide so it wasn’t bad. 
🧗 Upper Body Involvement: None 🪧 Trail Markers: Obvious 
☀️ Views: Worth every breakdown 📱 Cell Service: Ghost town (hope your intrusive thoughts are interesting) 
🦌 Wildlife Encounters: Mountain goats, a few deer, marmots, lots of ground squirrels 🥵 Difficulty: Hard, but only because of the mileage (and the optional, GRUELING Grinnell Glacier Overlook trail) 
🔄 Would I Hike Again? Hell yeah! Follow for more hiking trail reviews in Colorado & National Parks! #HikedItSurvivedIt
