Centennial Commemoration 1910-2010

 

 

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. 

Don't miss our eTour (online tour) of the Montana Historical Society/National Park Service exhibit, Land of Many Stories: Glacier National Park! This exhibit is located at the Montana Historical Society Museum in Helena, MT. It will be on display until October 2011.
