Pretty difficult, especially if you aren’t prepared for the elevation gain. I did it with my brother in 2015 and we were definitely not prepared. It seems inviting because of the parking lot at the switchback, but I would’ve rather waited to get a spot at Logan Pass, and went straight towards the overlook, then continued down and got a shuttle back. Still by far the most beautiful views I’ve ever had on a gike.
