Glacier National Park - Montana

From ancient forests to breathtaking lake views, you can hardly find a more scenic place to camp than Glacier National Park. With more than 700 miles of trails, it is considered a year-round paradise. Naturally, people flock to the melting glaciers and valleys that straddle the Canadian border. However, with so much to offer, the dangers of Glacier National Park can easily be overlooked. Fields of snow and melting glaciers pose major hazards due to their unpredictability, as does the wildlife.

The park is home to grizzly bears and black bears, and it experiences visitor fatalities year after year. Anyone daring to venture into the park should stay on marked hiking trails.
