The webcam at the Logan Pass Visitor Center in Glacier National Park is back online, with the addition of two more cameras.
The Glacier National Park Conservancy recently assumed responsibility for and maintenance of the cameras at Logan Pass Visitor Center, according to a release from the nonprofit.
In addition to the original camera that faces the parking lot, there are two new cameras which look toward the Hidden Lake trailhead and Reynolds Mountain.
The original camera has been down for the past year. According to Conservancy officials, visitors use it to check the weather and parking lot status, as well as to see beautiful views of Glacier.
Owing to the cameras’ remote location, maintenance will be limited during the winter months.
Underneath the camera facing Reynolds Mountain, there is a link to watch a timelapse of the sunrise and sunset each day.
The Logan Pass Visitor Center webcams can be found at glacier.org/logan-pass-webcam/. Other webcams in the park that are operated by the National Park Service can be found at nps.gov/glac/learn/photosmultimedia/webcams.htm.
