“Logan Pass sits at 6,646 feet on the spine of the Continental Divide, and Mount Reynolds is the sharp pyramid that anchors the view south of the visitor center. The peak rises to 9,125 feet, named for an early Blackfeet Reservation agent. In late July the meadows below the summit run yellow with glacier lilies and the marmots whistle from the rocks. By October the Going-to-the-Sun Road closes and the mountain belongs to the wind again.

— about Mount Reynolds from Logan Pass

The place, in three passes.

A little of what's known, in case you fall down the rabbit hole — or want to go see it yourself.
— the place

Mount Reynolds rises to 9,125 feet on the Continental Divide in Glacier National Park, directly south of Logan Pass. The peak is a horn carved by Pleistocene glaciers from the Precambrian sedimentary rock of the Lewis Overthrust, and its sharp summit is the most recognisable shape from the Logan Pass Visitor Center at 6,646 feet. The mountain was named after Charles A. Reynolds, an agent of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation in the 1870s. Going-to-the-Sun Road crosses the pass between mid-June and mid-October depending on snow.

— the season

The window is short. Logan Pass typically clears of snow in late June, and the alpine meadows below Reynolds bloom in a compressed pulse through July: glacier lily, beargrass, paintbrush, monkeyflower. Mountain goats and bighorn sheep work the slopes; hoary marmots whistle from the talus. By mid-September the larch on the lower slopes turns gold and the first storms hit the ridge. The road closes for the season in October, and Reynolds spends seven months under snow with no road access at all.

— the visit

Logan Pass is the high point of Going-to-the-Sun Road and the most-visited spot in the park. Vehicle reservations are required during the summer season, and the parking lot fills by mid-morning; the free park shuttle runs the road from late June through mid-September. The Hidden Lake Overlook boardwalk leaves directly from the visitor center and climbs through the meadow under Reynolds, 2.7 miles round trip. Weather changes fast at 6,646 feet, and snow can fall in any month.

— common questions

What people ask.

A few questions we get about Mount Reynolds from Logan Pass — and about bringing the piece home.
— about the place

The summit is 9,125 feet above sea level. The peak sits on the Continental Divide in Glacier National Park, directly south of Logan Pass at 6,646 feet.

Charles A. Reynolds, an agent of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation in the 1870s. The naming predates the establishment of Glacier National Park in 1910.

Going-to-the-Sun Road typically opens over Logan Pass between mid-June and early July and closes in mid-October. The exact dates depend on snow clearing each year.

Yes, during summer. Glacier National Park requires vehicle reservations for the Going-to-the-Sun Road corridor in peak season; the rules change annually, so check the park website before traveling.

Mountain goats and bighorn sheep work the alpine slopes year-round. Hoary marmots and Columbian ground squirrels are common in the meadows, and grizzly bears use the lower drainages.

The standard route is a non-technical scramble from the southwest, but the upper section involves loose rock and exposure. It is not a hike; route-finding and mountaineering judgment are required.

— about the piece in your home

It has carried well for many of our customers with ties to Glacier. The view from Logan Pass is the one people remember from the park, and Reynolds is the shape they describe. A Medium with a handwritten note from the studio works.

The cool blues and pale stone of the alpine palette sit well with Mountain-modern, Scandi-cabin, and Pacific-Northwest interiors. The tile reads as a clean horizon piece rather than a busy landscape.

Yes. Mountain-modern has moved away from generic antler-and-plaid toward real geography, and a tile of a named peak on the Continental Divide reads as place-specific and current.

A single Large suits a console or a narrow wall. A 4-tile Mural carries the ridgeline across a sofa, and a 9-tile Mural is right for a sectional or a long hallway with room to step back.

Yes, in the Dura Satin or Matte finish. The colour is slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, so steam, splashes and direct sunlight do not affect it.

A microfibre cloth with water handles everyday dust. In kitchens or bathrooms a mild non-abrasive cleaner is safe. No sealants, polishes, or special care routines are required.

Yes. Every WenderVista tile is original work from our single studio in Knoxville, Tennessee. We do not license the artwork to other manufacturers or print-on-demand services.
