Notes
  • Significance: Going-to-the-Sun Road is a 51-mile stretch of scenic mountain road in Glacier National Park. The road is significant as a unique engineering accomplishment of the early twentieth century, in that approximately twelve miles of its total length was literally carved out of the precipitous mountainside, with a minimum of powered equipment. The road is also significant as the first product of a 1925 cooperative agreement between the National Park Service and the Bureau of Public Roads. The road set a precedent in the National Park system, and demonstrated the principles of successfully integrating man-made features into the natural landscape.
