SUMMARY:Going to the Sun Road History
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jennifer Birnel\, Montana History Portal Director \nAugust 15th at 8:00 am. \nThe Going-to-the-Sun Road is billed as a historic narrow\, winding road with hairpin turns and sheer cliffs offering amazing views of glacial valleys\, waterfalls\, alpine meadows\, and wildlife. This is all true\, but have you ever wondered why or how the road was built? In a park set aside to preserve nature\, why was a road built through the center of it? What did it take to make a road of this magnitude possible and who built it? Students will examine the road’s construction\, which began in the early 20th century\, and its significance as a marvel of engineering and a symbol of human ingenuity in the face of challenging terrain. Through a mix of historical analysis\, architectural study\, and environmental considerations\, students will gain a deeper understanding of the Going-to-the-Sun Road’s legacy as a unique intersection of nature\, culture\, and innovation. \nBook Now \nMeeting Place: Glacier Institute Field Camp  \nItinerary: (subject to change due to trail closures and weather) We will start the day at 8 a.m. at Field Camp to discuss some of the history of the road\, view images\, and maps of the proposed routes and learn a little about the process. Then we will drive over the highway making stops at key locations to view camp sites\, road engineering feats\, and take in the beautiful views the builders intended for visitors to see. Lunch will be at Logan pass with time to hike a short distance on the highline trail to view the road as the workers saw it coming together. We will continue down the east side of road with a couple more viewing stops before traveling back to Field Camp by 4 p.m. \nFood:  Please bring a trail lunch\, dinner\, plenty of water and snacks for the day. \nPark Entrance Fees: Participants are responsible for purchasing their park entry passes prior to the course. These can be purchased online at:  https://www.recreation.gov/sitepass/74280.    \nAcademic Credit: Please see our ‘2026 Academic Credit’ link on our website to learn about OPI credits for our courses. \nEquipment: You will receive a Field Camp gear list once you register. Most importantly are comfortable hiking shoes\, at least 1-2 liter water bottle\, backpack\, rain gear\, hat\, and sunscreen. Weather can be varied\, especially at the high elevations of Logan Pass\, so please be prepared with appropriate clothing\, especially warm layers.   \nPhysical Requirements: Easy. This course will primarily be driving to different locations and lecture based. \nRecommended Reading \n\nThe Going-to-the-Sun Road: A History of the Road and the People Who Built It by David J. Kile\nGlacier National Park: A History by Thomas J. Elpel\n\nBook Now

We can accommodate any dietary restrictions upon request. Breakfast and dinners will be  eaten in camp while most lunches will be eaten out in the field.   \n  \nAccommodations: 6 nights of lodging are included into the course fee. Our student cabins are basic\,  hostel-style cabins with 5 single beds\, bedside lights\, and electrical outlets. Students should be  prepared to share a cabin with up to 4 other people\, cabins are separated by gender. Couples may be  paired up in the event there is ample space. We provide a bottom sheet for your bed as well as a pillow  and pillow case\, but please bring a warm sleeping bag. Be sure to bring a flashlight or headlamp for  night trips to the bathroom. The community bathhouse has flush toilets\, sinks\, and hot showers.   \n  \nPark Entrance Fees: Participants are responsible for purchasing their park entrance passes prior to the  course. These can be purchased online at: https://www.recreation.gov/sitepass/74280.   \n  \nPhysical Requirements: Moderately-strenuous. Participants will hike an average of 10 miles each day  over uneven terrain with an average elevation gain of 2\,000 feet. See hike-specific trail stats on  itinerary below (these are approximations).  \n  \nEquipment: You will receive a Field Camp gear list once you register. Most importantly are comfortable  hiking shoes\, snacks\, water bottle at least 1-2 liters\, backpack\, rain gear\, hat\, and sunscreen. Weather can be varied\, especially in the higher altitudes\, so please be prepared with appropriate clothing\, with  extra warm layers. We will be hiking in varied elevations throughout the course so expect cold\,  potential snow and high winds.  \n  \nSuggestions on Getting There: The Glacier Institute Field Camp is located just inside the West  Entrance to Glacier National Park. The nearest airport is in Kalispell\, Montana\, about 30 minutes from  Field Camp. Travelers should plan to arrive at Field Camp on arrival day between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. to  check in and get settled. Travelers should plan to depart Field Camp by 10 a.m. on departure day. If  you find airline reservations are difficult to make by flying into Kalispell\, an alternative is to fly into  Missoula\, which is about three hours from the park. If you fly into Missoula you will need to rent a car  for the drive up to the park.  \n  \n*Note: airfare and car rental are not included in the trip price.  \n  \nNotes on our Itinerary: It is common for many of our days to start early with breakfast between 6 a.m.  and 7 a.m. We plan accordingly to beat the heat as well as the crowds\, and allow ourselves ample time  to reach the trailhead each day. The early bird gets the worm\, especially in Glacier National Park. We  allow ample down time in the evenings\, upon returning from our daily excursion. Due to the nature of  experiencing a natural place such as Glacier National Park we are constantly adjusting our plans to  accommodate road and trail closures (due to bears\, weather and wildlife). Therefore natural  circumstances may arise that warrant us adjusting some of the above itinerary.  *Be sure to also check out our adult day courses going on. If there is one you are interested in joining  during your week\, please inquire upon registration.   \n  \nTrip Difficulty: Most of our hikes will range from 8-12 miles in length. The hikes will be moderate to  moderately strenuous with elevation gains of 400-2\,700 feet. All of the hikes are on maintained trails  and will take place between elevations of 5\,000 to 8\,100 feet. In order to comfortably complete the hikes on this trip\, all hikers should be participating in regular aerobic activity four to five days a week  for a minimum of 30 minutes duration — jogging\, bike riding\, or using the aerobic equipment at your  local gym are just some examples. To help build your endurance\, you should begin weekly hikes a few  months before the trip of 8-10 miles that gain at least 1\,500-2\,000 feet of elevation. By the time of the  trip you should be able to comfortably maintain an average hiking speed of 2-2.5 mph for six to eight hours — the key word being comfortably. Because of the small\, but real potential for grizzly bear  encounters while hiking in Glacier National Park\, it is not safe for people to become separated from the group. Therefore\, it is imperative that you are able to maintain the hiking pace recommended by the leader.   \n  \nWeather: Field Camp is located in West Glacier\, roughly 3\,600ft above sea level. Glacier National Park  covers quite a large spread of land\, and straddles the continental divide. On any given day\, the  weather on the west side of the divide can be quite different from the weather on the east side of the  divide. The best way to be prepared for ever changing mountainous weather is to have layers! See our  gear list for recommendations on what to bring. We recommend checking the weather prior to your trip. NOAA Weather Forecast is a great resource for this. Although we will be lodging in West Glacier  we will also travel to the eastern side of the divide near East Glacier & Saint Mary; checking the  weather for these different locations can help to provide a big picture of the forecast.  \n  \nGratuity Guidelines: Gratuity for Outdoor Education Specialists and/or Instructors is not included. \n   \nFellow Travelers: This is a group travel adventure. All participants are encouraged to review the  itinerary and trip difficulty. It is inevitable that some travelers will have different goals\, perspectives and  abilities. We ask that the group respect each individual’s conditions and needs throughout the course  or trip. We want everyone to enjoy themselves to the fullest! \nBook Now

SUMMARY:Alpine Wildflowers Guided Educational Hike
DESCRIPTION:July 18 at 7 a.m. \nInstructors: Janet Paul Bones \nThe wildflowers of Glacier are spectacular. They are especially beautiful against the rugged backdrop of mountain peaks. Their fragility is even more striking when the adverse environment of their habitat is understood. In this class\, our goal is to discover and enjoy Glacier’s wildflowers in an informal and relatively non-technical manner. We will enjoy discovering the diversity of Glacier’s wildflowers\, the spectacular and the inconspicuous. Structure and function of plant parts\, plant tolerance\, adaptation\, distribution\, habitat\, and limiting factors will be discussed as they apply to flowering plants along the trail. Various flower books and keys will be available for review. \nMeeting Place: Glacier Institute Field Camp. \nBook Now \nItinerary: (subject to change due to trail closures\, weather and blooming seasons) \nThe day will be spent in the field identifying the wonderful wildflowers of Glacier’s alpine areas. At 7 a.m. we will begin with an introduction to wildflower identification and a brief overview of the day.  We will then travel to Siyeh Bend to begin our hike along the Piegan Pass trail. We are looking to get just beyond the junction in Preston Park\, to get to the true alpine. Please note that this is a wildflower exploration day and the pace is slower than a hiking day. The course will end by 4 p.m. and will not be canceled due to weather.  \n*If late snowfall or unexpected trail closures should make flower viewing at the higher elevations impossible\, we will visit alternate sites at lower elevations in the Park.  Glacier Park affords glorious floral displays in a wide range of habitats. \nFood: Please bring a trail lunch\, plenty of water\, and snacks for the day. \nPark Entrance Fees: Participants are responsible for purchasing their park entry passes prior to the course. These can be purchased online at: https://www.recreation.gov/sitepass/74280 \nAcademic Credit: Please see our ‘2026 Academic Credit’ link on our website to learn about OPI credits for our courses. \nEquipment: You will receive a Field Camp gear list once you register. Most importantly are comfortable hiking shoes\, at least 1-2 liter water bottle\, backpack\, rain gear\, hat\, and sunscreen. Weather can be varied\, especially at the high elevations of Logan Pass\, so please be prepared with appropriate clothing\, especially warm layers. A magnifying lens as well as binoculars are nice to have. We will provide small field lenses if you don’t have your own. \nPhysical Requirements: Moderate difficulty. Hiking distance covers about six miles total with 1\,200 feet of elevation gain. Frequent stops are made while exploring for wildflowers. \nRecommended Reading:\n● Alpine Wildflowers of the Rocky Mountains by Duft and Moseley\n● Rocky Mountain Wild Flowers by Porsild\, National Museums of Canada.\n● Plants of Waterton-Glacier National Parks by Richard J.
