Awesome tundra hiking above tree line for those with solid hiking boots and experience off-trail. Be prepared for mountain weather (clouds, rain). Great views of glaciers, river, and more mountains!  Alpine wildflowers.

Worthington Glacier State Park
Incredible views of a sweeping glacier alongside the highway. A one mile trail leads along the glacier's edge. If you are confident in route selection and hiking off-trail, try ridge walking.
