At Glacier Guides and Montana Raft, we’re locals, and we love Glacier National Park with all of our hearts. So, we decided to share the love and put together our very own Glacier National Park Insider’s Guide. In it, you’ll find our recommendations on the top 10 adventures in Glacier. We also weigh in on what to pack, where to eat, what to drink, and where to stay. You’ll also find information on typical weather conditions around Glacier. We’ve even listed our our favorite things to do in the neighboring communities.

On our guided hikes in Glacier National Park, we see love seeing the park come to life with Spring, the season of transformation. Bull elk and buck deer shed their antlers in late winter and begin growing new ones, covered in a soft, fuzzy layer of velvet. It’s nature’s way of hitting reset and gearing up for the new season of action.

Check out this young buck’s new antlers as he finds a pretty great snack: the fresh blooms of Spring wildflowers 🦌
