The days are getting longer and warmer and we're itching for hiking season to start! In our Glacier Conversation tonight we'll have a peek inside the critical role of the Montana Conservation Corps to inspire young people through hands-on conservation service.

In May, Glacier Book Club returns with an fascinating discussion about ranger life with Andrea Lankford, the author of the excellent Ranger Confidential. We'll discuss her experience in national parks--where nature and humanity constantly collide, and the scenery can be as cruel as it is redemptive. This event is in partnership with Midtown Reader in Tallahassee, FL.

Ranger Confidential
with author Andrea Lankford

Wednesday, May 29
6:30PM MDT

For twelve years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved. She chaperoned baby sea turtles on their journey to sea. She pursued bad guys on her galloping patrol horse. She jumped into rescue helicopters bound for the heart of the Grand Canyon. She won arguments with bears. She slept with a few too many rattlesnakes. Ranger Confidential is the story behind the scenery of the nation’s crown jewels—Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Great Smokies, and Denali.

Lake McDonald Water Quality with Brooke Bannerman

Wednesday, June 12

Lake McDonald may be the most photographed view in all of Glacier National Park. It is an iconic symbol of the park’s natural beauty and clean water. Glacier’s aquatic team aims to keep it that way which is precisely why a 2-year, Conservancy-funded, nutrient study of Lake McDonald was completed in 2023. You don’t want to miss this conversation with Brooke Bannerman, University of Montana Ph.D. student, as she shares stories from her time studying Lake McDonald and the results of her important work.
