Glacier National Park
he words, "Heaven on Earth" are often used to describe a place of beauty
and perhaps a spiritual escape. Nowhere do these words ring more true than
Glacier National Park. In 1890, naturalist and historian George Bird Grinnell
described it as the "Crown of the Continent"—a two-tiered idea acknowledging
the triple headwaters of the continent that flow out to three seas, and
mountainous formations that decorate the rooftop of Big Sky Montana. It is
home to hundreds of glacier-carved peaks, rivers, waterfalls and streams and
nearly 750 miles of maintained hiking trails. Its sheer beauty at its finest!
