Glacier Park Overnight Backpacking Tips Glacier Park Hiking Tips Ten Important Items To Bring On Your Glacier Park Backpacking Adventure Glacier Park Backcountry Permits & Backcountry Campground Reservations: How It All Works Glacier Park Shuttle Services ______________________________________________________________________________ Shuttle Services If you are hiking from Kintla Lake or Bowman Lake to Goat Haunt, there are no shuttle services provided on the west side of the park. Therefore, make sure you arrange for a car to be at the trailhead, and a car to be at Waterton Township. If your "pick-up" car is located at Many Glacier or St. Mary, you can arrange for the East Side Shuttle to pick you up at Waterton Township and take you to St. Mary. You can also get on Glacier Chat and find out who's hiking on the same trail the other way. You can exchange keys along the trail. Many Glacier Hikers Shuttle Xanterra provides a Many Glacier Hiker's Shuttle for a fee. The East Side Shuttle Service no longer (2017) provides transportation between Waterton Township and East Glacier Montana. In the past, if you were hiking the Stoney Indian Pass Trail, you could park your car at the trailhead (Chief Mountain Customs), and arrange for the East Side Shuttle to pick you up at Waterton Township and take you back to your car at Chief Mountain Customs Trailhead. This option no longer exists as of 2017. The NPS provides a free shuttle service along the Going To The Sun Road between St. Mary Visitor Center and Apgar Visitor Center. This shuttle service is helpful, for example, for those of you hiking the Gunsight Pass Trail. Leave your car at Lake McDonald Lodge, and take the NPS shuttle to the Jackson Glacier Overlook on the Sun Road, and begin your hike there. _______________________________________________________________________________ Additional Popular Glacier Park Multi-Day Hikes: Logan Pass to Goat Haunt Highline Trail / Northern Highline Trail / Fifty Mountain / Waterton Valley Cut Bank Trailhead to Red Eagle Lake Trailhead via Triple Divide Pass Cut Bank Trailhead to Two Medicine Area via Pitamakan Pass Two Medicine to Red Eagle Lake Trailhead Via Pitamakan Pass and Triple Divide Pass Belly River Valley Elizabeth Lake, Helen Lake Poia Lake - Ptarmigan Tunnel via Red Gap Pass Nyack - Coal Creek Loop Starting at Nyack Crossing Slide Lake - Belly River Valley via Gable Pass More Multi-Day Hikes: Quartz Lakes Loop Bowman Lake Area Camas Creek Trail (Trout Lake, Arrow Lake, Camas Lake, Lake Evangeline) Lake McDonald Lodge Area Dawson - Pitamakan Pass Loop (Multi-Day Option) Two Medicine Area Ole Creek Trail Lubec Trailhead to Firebrand Pass, ending at Walton Ranger Station Park Creek Trail Two Medicine Lake to Walton Ranger Station, Via Cobalt Lake and Two Medicine Pass Includes Lake Isabel Harrison Lake South Section of Glacier Park, U.S. Highway 2 Cracker Lake Many Glacier Area Snyder Lake Lake McDonald Lodge Area Logging Lake - Grace Lake Inside North Fork Road (Glacier Route 7) Akokala Lake Bowman Lake Area Otokomi Lake Rising Sun Area Old Man Lake Two Medicine Area No Name Lake Two Medicine Area Upper Two Medicine Lake Two Medicine Area Extended Multi-Day Hikes in Glacier National Park: The Great Northern Traverse Kintla Lake to Goat Haunt (via Boulder Pass Trail), then...
