Glacier National Park

Glacier's Timeline

The history and culture of what is present day Glacier National Park dates back at least 10,000 years.  Around the turn of the century, people started to look at the land differently. Rather than just seeing the minerals they could mine or land to settle on, they started to recognize the value of its spectacular wild and scenic beauty.

This timeline is a mere glimpse of Glacier National Park through the years.  If you have history that you would like to see added, please share it with us and we will try to incorporate it into the timeline. 

This timeline was created with the use and help of Glacier National Park's Archives Office, the Glacier National Park Digital Photo File, Glacier Park, Inc's Digital Photos, and C.W. Guthrie's new book, Glacier National Park: The First 100 Years, Farcountry Press.
