Glacier National Park Chat

When I was there, there was no bear wire...

When I was there 3-4 yrs ago, we were required to carry one at Helen...

Do you still have to carry one if you have Helen on your intinerary?

This tent has been bought...

I have a 2 year old (maybe 3? can't find my receipt) Big Agnes Fly Creek UL3 for sale. The fly is in need of minor repair. It has 9 small abrasion holes (biggest about 2" long) in the fly, after blowing across my driveway while drying. I called BA and they said most repairs are under $15. I did...

Hi All, I didn't get my advance reservation request again for the 3rd year in a row, but I still want to do a trip. I'm thinking of doing a trip over an extended Labor Day wkend. Is that wkend still a busy one in the backcountry, or could I get a few sites fairly easily when I arrive in the park? I ...

I will not be doing any backpacking/backcountry camping, just car camping. There will be a couple of people on the trip who have never backpacked and do not have the gear for it...

That's really generous of you. You can count on me to not count on you =)

Well, I've been waiting to comment on this thread for awhile, but my account was deactivated when I updated my email address. Anyhow, I hope I can get the Kintla-Bowman Route. I'm thinking it shouldn't be too hard to find a ride up there, since we'll only have one car...or is that a dumb thing to ba...

I've always wanted to be there when the larch turn color...although that may be getting into October depending on several factors...
