Mail from the U.S. Department of the Interior


On May 11, 1910, President William Taft signed a bill into law establishing Glacier National Park in Montana. It became the country's 10th national park, preserving 1 million acres of glacier-carved peaks and valleys, pristine turquoise lakes and streams, and dense ancient forests for all to enjoy.

 

Today, millions of people visit this iconic park to drive Going-to-the-Sun Road, hit the trail to take in some epic vistas, see wildlife in their natural habitat, and more. Learn more about the Crown of the Continent.
