I provide an overview to my favorite National Park, helpful hints to getting in Park Hotel accommodations, describe the 5 day hike areas, and the sister park in Waterton Lakes in Canada.

For those planning to go to Glacier National Park, I cannot recommend these videos enough. In 2023 my small family of 4 went to Glacier and had a perfect time due almost entirely to the videos posted by this channel. They are a gift to those of us that want to make the most out of our once in a lifetime (hopefully more) Glacier adventure. I say Thank You to you "The West Is Big, Explore It" but these two tiny words do not truly capture my gratitude. Your love for Glacier and willingness to share it has made memories for my girls wife and I that will last a lifetime. It is my #1 NP and in the top 3 for everyone else (Yellowstone and Acadia rival it for the ladies). Much love to you!!
