Ice to meet you!

The United States has 429 national parks, but if you're looking for a blend of rugged beauty, thrilling adventures and serene landscapes, Glacier National Park in Montana is the place to be. Established in 1910, this national park has more than 700 lakes, two mountain ranges and vast forests teeming with life, which earned it the moniker 'Crown of the Continent.' With its 25 glaciers, it's a vital study ground for scientists who monitor climate change. Spread across approximately 1,013,000 acres (409,946 hectares), this park protects animals such as grizzly bears, moose, elks and mountain goats. Glacier National Park also houses the Going-to-the-Sun Road, more than 700 miles of trails and the awe-inspiring vistas of Swiftcurrent Lake, seen in today's image.
