Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park is a treasure located in Montana’s own backyard. This national park offers camping, backcountry backpacking, hiking, fishing, boating and even cross country skiing in the winter. |
|
Glacier Park is rich in history with recent archaeological surveys, which have discovered evidence of human use dating back over 10,000 years. These people may have been the ancestors of tribes that live in the area today. The Blackfeet Indians controlled the vast prairies east of the mountains and the Salish and Kootenai Indians lived and hunted in the western valleys.
The Glaciers in the Park are all geologically new having formed in the last few thousand years. They are magnificent and behold the beauty of our great country. There are over 50 glaciers in the park from which it gets its name. There are also over 200 lakes or streams in Glacier,
and over 730 miles of trails for hikers to enjoy in Glacier National Park.
The park encompasses approximately 1.4 million acres of wilderness and some of the most beautiful mountain scenery in the western United States. A combination of spectacular scenery, diverse flora and fauna, and relative isolation from major population centers have combined to make Glacier National Park the center of one of the largest and most intact ecosystems in North America.
Glacier National Park is open year round, but due to its northern mountainous location, most people visit the park in the spring and summer. Park services open in late May and continue through September. During other months, limited service is available inside the park, and all services are available outside the park in local communities. You can visit without the crowds in the off-season months. The peak visitor season is in June through September.
Overall this great park is a fantastic area to see whether you are searching for some family fun or educational enrichment, or if you are just seeking some time alone with nature, Montana and Glacier Park is a must see.
