Glacier National Park Promised as National Playground
The United States should establish Glacier National Park in northern Montana as a national playground and park, alongside Yellowstone. A U S Geological Survey report cites 60 plus glaciers and 250 glacial lakes within 1 million acres south of the Canadian line, with Lewin and Livingston ranges forming the core. The proposal emphasizes scenic value and public access over mining or heavy industry, noting possible railroad and road routes to open the area while preserving its natural beauty.
