Glacier National Park Chat

Hi Aligator, We've had really good luck with the Walk-Up Permit process. Both times we landed Hole and Frances as a latter night out (3rd, 4th or 5th). Would encourage you to take PeteE's advice regarding an early arrival at the Permit office if going for a WalkUp though. Brought my coffee, sleeping...

Tibber, we're one of those that hung in there for your backpack up to Hole and Boulder Pass. I enjoyed your footage and especially your knowledge of wildflowers. You showed so many that we had not noticed or identified before. I had in mind to rerun your video before my next trip as a primer about t...

Hi Krieser and Thorn, I'm longwinded....forgive in advance! :oops: This has been a most interesting thread, on several topics. I value the contributors here and find them (as a group) to be so knowledgeable and helpful, giving out just the kind of info that I'm interested in, weighing the pro's and ...

Looks like this Cub has made its debut to the world with views in Namibia and China.

Hey Daschmit, Remarkable story on Pitamakan! I’d not heard anything about her before and certainly adds special meaning to Running Eagle Falls. You may be aware of our own Chatter Pitamakin who has made such a great contribution here over the years with his vast knowledge of the North Fork area and ...

Great sleuthing there Chatters :!: Just noticed at the bottom of the webcams page there’s a map of each cam’s location. #1&2, the bear’s den and tree, are in fact West Side, somewhere in Apgar. 8) Glad to have yet another reason to tune into Glacier NP everyday. Wouldn’t it be fun to watch Sleep...

Great Capture JustMike! He's SO CUuuuute!
Good thoughts there on the name Cotten for the type tree he's in.
Not knowing which area of the Park he's residing, the name Dawson came to mind....

Other suggestions??

Thanks Sue, glad for that timely reminder.
Sperry IS a treasure and I hope NPS will be dedicated in seeing to The Restoration. I did notice that the period for public comment ends on April 2nd.

Thanks Tammy and Mike. :D [img]https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/810/40150785054_6f701a8d65_b.jpg[/ Such Fun that trip Pete!! We packed in a lot and great times with you! You guys have a good time this year in the Sawtooths! I'll be up at Grinnell overlook again in September. I have 3 nights at Granite...

I can't read it either. Be careful to keep it away from the critters. My poles are made of nylon, foam, plastic and aluminum and have been well chewed by deer and marmots. They would go crazy with a delicacy like real leather. As Orin says, best to guard that nice pole from critters...and I would a...

Thanks for the info Daschmit! Will check out video and reach out via PM.

Again Good Luck Everyone. Would enjoy seeing what itineraries you all land.

:arrow: :arrow: Good Luck to ALL Y'ALL tomorrow!! :arrow: :arrow: Selfishly i'm submitting offerings to the backcountry gods for many of you b/c you share such great pics and video. (Tibber, hoping you hit peak wildflower season :mrgreen: ) Looks like we're checking out Idaho's Sawtooths this year, ...

Was getting nostalgic that this was the time of year to reserve the Chalets (thinking of Sperry).

But on a happy note....
Anyone get lucky with reservations on Monday?

Wishing Dave, Deb and all the Chatters a Wonderful Holiday Season, and a glorious time in the outdoors in 2018!

And Wait...Wait a Minute....I am missing your earlier post and afraid its gone for good! : Sometimes a joke isn't funny. Part of the "trying to be funny" rather than just "being funny." After sleeping on it, I deleted the "lucktad" bit. Actually thought you pulled off ...
