The last few years the state has built a new parking at the Glacier's edge that all can enjoy the new facilities and kid friendly In the old days one could drive right up to the glacier and hop on. . I was there last summer. Back in the day at said lodge their was a nice restaurant and the pay to access the glacier was not much. The general area was remote back then.   I saw last summer where the lodge no longer has a restaurant and now operates a small gift shop and charges a lot more to cross the few miles to get to the glacier.  It was all confusing with all the signs especially from the access to the dirt rood leading to the check-in lodge from the main  highway. I did enjoy the glacier when the kids were small, it was easy to access, eat at the lodge, pay a few bucks to cross over the glacier and just explore it. But there are just a lot more folks here and the new parking area is big and fits the environment so fix the road.
