It's a day of clam seas and dry, grey-ish skies. The blue ice provides a stunning pop of colour. There's a sea bird (gull) in the middle of the action. Patagonia weather is changeable, three seasons per day. Brüggen Glacier / Pío XI Glacier, much too wide for even my 14 mm, this is a 4-frame stitch. The face is about 5 km / 3.1 miles across. The glacier is considered "stable", not growing or retreating.
Ice, Ice, Baby!

A glacier front with blue ice seen from a frozen fjord. Yours truly on skis in front of the glacier, to get an idea of the size. Von Postbreen, Tempelfjorden. March 1994.

Morning light at the Svínafellsjökull glacier, after being stuck through a storm with winds up to 110km/h. The light was for sure better than otherwise in the early afternoon the day before.

Throughout the summer this is the primary information stop for visitors entering the park at West Glacier. The visitor center is closed during winter but there are informational displays and publications available in the plaza.

Austrian glaciers disintegrating due to climate change, say scientists

The village of Apgar is the main hub of activity (on the west side of the park) throughout the summer. The park's largest campground is located here as are gift shops, a restaurant, lodging facilities, and boat and recreational equipment rentals.

A heavily glaciated and snow-covered mountain peak in the Alaska Range catches warm pink and orange alpenglow on its upper slopes and summit while the lower flanks and glacier basin below remain in deep blue shadow. A glacial cirque with exposed blue-green ice is visible at the center of the mountain's bowl. The foreground is a broad snow-covered glacier surface. Photographed from the Loket Tributary of the Black Rapids Glacier, Alaska, April.

Imagine laying on your back in the St. Mary valley and looking straight up at the sky. That is your view from this webcam. On a clear night the image of the sky is spectacular, so visit after dark for the best experience. The tan shape at the top is the Dusty Star Observatory. The other buildings in the area include the St. Mary Visitor Center and the St. Mary entrance station. The center of the image looks straight up at the sky. If the circular image is a clock, the Dusty star Observatory is to the east at 12'clock, north is at 3 o'clock, west is at 6 o'clock. and south is at 9 o'clock.

Alpine glacier holds history dating back to the Romans. And it's melting-fast.

The Middle Fork of the Flathead River forms the southwest border of Glacier National Park. This view, from near Park Headquarters, shows the river as it flows under the West Glacier bridge. At night some of the lights of West Glacier may be visible. During the summer, watch for rafters. Several commercial rafting businesses use this section of river. In the winter, the only activity along the river might be the occasional coyote or deer or a really cold kayaker.

This view from near the Scenic Point Trailhead looks northwest to the Dawson Pass area. The mountains in the foreground are Sinopah Mountain on the left and Rising Wolf Mountain on the right. In the distance Lone Walker Mountain is just visible over the shoulder of Sinopah and Helen Mountain is just to the right of center. One of the best hikes in the park works its way up to Dawson Pass and then continues north along the spine of the Continental Divide to Pitakakan Pass. Five miles of high-elevation hiking that is second to none.

A porter carries a heavy load over a glacier covered in moraine (rock pulverised by the movement of the glacier). Skies are deep blue and cloud gathers around the mountain peaks towering overhead. The peak to the right is Pumori, one of the 8,000m summits. Canon EOS550D and Tamron 18-200mm ISO200 18mm f/11 1/500s 5th November 2011 10.58am

This view to the northeast from the summit of Apgar Mountain provides a spectacular view of Lake McDonald and the mountains in the distance. To the left of the lake are Stanton Mountain and Mt. Vaught (Stanton just in front of Vaught) and then just to the right the Garden Wall. The Continental Divide follows the crest of the Garden Wall. Continuing to the right are Mt. Cannon and Mt. Brown. The last mountain clearly visible to the right is Edwards Mountain. Apgar Lookout is at the summit and one of the more popular hikes on the west side.

To many visitors to the park, this view is their first introduction to the spectacular scenery of Glacier National Park. This iconic view from Apgar, at the foot of Lake McDonald, really shows what Glacier is all about...big glacially carved lakes, vast wild views of the high peaks along the Continental Divide, and the ever-changing forests that blanket much of the lower elevations. It's no wonder that for many people when they think of Glacier, they think of this view.

The view from this webcam can be changed by park staff and occasionally we will move it and provide a different aspect of the view from the St. Mary Visitor Center. We hope to be able to provide close views of the elk in the fall and winter, tighter views of the mountains, and occasionally people at the Entrance Station and in the Visitor Center. Thanks to the Glacier National Park Conservancy for their continued support of the park's webcam installations.

Many Glacier is often referred to as the Heart of the Park. This spectacular view is very similar to the Two Medicine Valley in that there is a dominant peak, in this case Grinnell Point, separating two valleys. To the right is the Swiftcurrent Valley and just up and over the wall in the background is Granite Park. To the left is the valley that leads up to Grinnell Glacier, one of the most popular trails in the park. The Many Glacier Hotel sits at the edge of Swiftcurrent Lake and is an outstanding example of the type of architecture that was so common in western national parks in early 1900. A walk through its soaring lobby is a must see when you visit Many Glacier.
