Glacier

   Glacier National Park is an American national park located in northwestern Montana, on the Canada-United States border, adjacent to the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. The park encompasses more than 1 million acres and includes parts of two mountain ranges, more than 130 named lakes, over 1,000 different species of plant and hundreds of species of animals. This vast pristine ecosystem is the centerpiece of what has been referred to as the "Crown of the Continent Ecosystem," a region of protected land encompassing 16,000 square miles. The area was established as a national park on March 11, 1910.
