After unusually early snowfall in September 2014 and a night at Many Glacier Hotel, I hiked in this stunning scenery with a friend from the UK, whilst two friends from Montana did a road tour. It was beyond stunning…..blue skies….snow…clear, clean air. I have been to Yellowstone several times and love it there too.
I do not get to hike in wild, bold scenery like this in my home area of Oxfordshire, England.
Sincerely,
Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park preserves more than a million acres of forests, alpine meadows and lakes with habitat for a wide variety of plant and animal life.

“I support national parks because they preserve this beautiful pristine landscape that is so very special. They give a home to wildlife and a chance for people to experience the wilderness at its best: to stop, breathe and take in the magnificence all around us. It is a gift beyond measure. Keep up the good work. ”
