Glacier National Park Chat

Can someone please put another quarter into the GNP server?

Fantastic on all fronts! 1 day turn is unprecedented, on a Saturday nonetheless. Now you can start with logistics.

9/12 GAB from Chief Mountain 9/13 HEL (from GAB or MAN) 9/14 GLH/MOJ 9/15 MOJ (walk-in change 9/14-15 to the same MOL/GLH if possible, could go day trip to Mokawanis + Margaret or Stoney Indian Pass) 9/16 ELF 9/17 Out or POI or 9/16 ELF (from MAN) 9/17 MOJ 9/18 GLF | KOO 9/19 GLH (fix 9/17-9/20 at w...

Looks like the trail status page has been updated to include the Many Glacier link - thanks Scott!

Last request: walk-in availability page.

Thanks for the updates Scott- sorry they’re not good ones. So it looks like they’re turning them in < 2 weeks now with your datapoint. Take a look at the Gunsight pass itinerary I posted earlier. I’m keeping an eye on things and will let you know if anything else pops up (you’re mostly interested in...

Good deal, when you're done fixing the MG trail status page, can you do the walk-in availability page as well?

I did notice this open:
08-10-22 SPE
08-11-22 GUN
08-12-22 REY
08-13-22 ELL

Looks like you carry a big stick Scott- availability ‘back’.

Now can you get them to fix Many Glacier missing from the trail status page?

Looks like they're done with processing the initial batch and the advanced availability site is back up and working well. Walk-in is not, but trail status and closures are. Mind blowing how few are left, especially all the way to end of schedule (September). GRN, STO completely gone. FIF might as we...

Dave Roemer has been announced as the new Superintendent.

Sorry to hear that Scott. I find it really hard to believe those sites aren’t available late September, with standard application numbers and the increased availability. Eagerly anticipating a snapshot of what is left. I’m skeptical they’ll ever fix the website. This feels similar to the issue last ...

Scott, no disagreement here. I also have received permit denials for available itineraries, called and fixed same day. That said, I empathized with their situation (understaffed, under time pressure, late change in IT plans, likely a lot of grumpy callers), didn’t want to shoot the messenger, and re...

I left a message and a ranger returned my call - say what you want about the process, what great people. I was 2700 or so out of 4000, and they're processing about 100 a day There wasn't an error and that my route choice was unavailable (I struggle accepting this given the typically dead Sept date r...

Rejected as well, with date range well into September. Reading to much into the email, are they not even looking at September availability? I’m going to call (leave message).

Obligatory dancing banana for you two!

Sorry to hear about the permit rejection. One used to be able to ‘check their math’ but the availability site has been down as Scott mentioned. No availability for a 6 week span in different areas of the park with flexible options and increased advanced availability this year ? That is hard to imagi...
