Project Update:
Clark's Nutcracker and Whitebark Pine

Moths sitting on a white sheet
( [link removed] )New studies, made
possible by donor support, have painted a stark picture of the
critical situation facing Glacier's whitebark pines.

With nearly 70% of the trees already killed and most of the
living trees infected by blister rust, the ancient relationship
between whitebark pine and Clark's nutcracker is threatened with
collapse.

The situation is not without hope. Glacier's cutting-edge
restoration practices, informed by studies like this, are giving
whitebark a chance, but they need your support to keep the work
going.

Glacier Book Club:
Perma Red with Debra Magpie Earling

On the Flathead Indian Reservation, summer is ending, and Louise
White Elk is determined to forge her own path. Raised by her
Grandmother Magpie after the death of her mother, Louise and her
younger sister have grown up into the harsh social and physical
landscape of western Montana in the 1940s, where Native people
endure boarding schools and life far from home. As she approaches
adulthood, Louise hopes to create an independent life for herself
and an improved future for her family—but three persistent men
have other plans.

As tensions mount, Louise finds herself trying to outrun the
bitter clutches of winter and the will of powerful men, facing
choices that will alter her life—and end another’s—forever.
