On this trip my son, Kevin, and two of our friends Dixon and Jeremy Ingalls and I hiked into Granite Park Chalet for two nights, and then hiked out over Swiftcurrent Pass to the eastern side of the park. We started our trip at Logan Pass and hiked 7.6 miles on Highline Trail to reach Granite Park Chalet. On this hike (at around 6700 foot level) other than a 600 foot climb and then loss again, you end up at almost the same elevation as when you start. On the way out, we went up 500 feet, then down 2300 feet to reach Swiftcurrent Inn on the eastern side of the park. We then got a ride to the St. Mary Visitor Center, where we could catch a shuttle back up to our car at Logan Pass.
