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.

Our Current Conditions Report for this week includes a beautifully plowed section of GTTSR. Kudos to our local plow teams for assisting with safer access all the way to the Loop!

We’ll soon be Springing into bike season with bicycle and e-bike rentals starting May 3rd, and guided bike tours starting May 7th!! Reserve your spot for seasonal adventure at glacierguides.com/bike/

Please note there is a hard avalanche closure for hikers and bikers at the Loop, 14 miles past the Lake McDonald vehicle closure. Always obey all road closures and keep yourself and others safe by brushing up on Avy knowledge and hazards along your Springtime routes. Swipe to see an example of some avalanche paths you might encounter along the way! 👉

Watch out for SLICK ice patches around miles 7 - 9 coming from the West vehicle closure. Happy cycling!
