with Park Roads Supervisor Brian Paul
Wednesday, April 26
6:30PM MDT
The annual process of getting Glacier National Park facilities
open for millions of summer visitors is a huge undertaking. It
involves removing hundreds of millions of tons of snow, braving
avalanche and rock fall, and preserving the historic integrity of
the road. Join us for a discussion with Glacier National Park
Roads Supervisor Brian Paul about plowing Going-to-the-Sun Road
and everything it takes to make Glacier ready for summer.
Registration is now open, limited space remaining!

Last Stand
by Michael Punke
Wednesday, May 17
6:30PM MDT
From the author of the #1 bestselling book, The Revenant, comes
the story of the American West through the lens of the bison.
Over the last three decades of the nineteenth century, 30 million
buffalo were reduced to twelve. Into that maelstrom rode young
George Bird Grinnell. A scientist, journalist, hunter and
conservationist, Grinnell would lead the battle to save this
species. Last Stand is the story of the death of the old West,
and the birth of the conservation movement.
Registration is now open! You can purchase the book
( [link removed] ) in our online store. All
proceeds from your purchases support Glacier National Park!
