= = =History= ==The park became formed as a national park 1910 in Montana. [|George Bird Grinnell] worked hard for the creation of a national park. Grinnell happened to be an early explorer around the area of what is now called the Glacier National Park. The area was made a Forest Preserve in 1900 and in 1910 President Taft signed the bill establishing Glacier as the country's 10th national park. ==

==Here in Glacier National Park we give our visitors opportunities to enjoy amazing learning, the most adventurist vacations, the beautiful [|wilderness,] and lots of family fun. We have lots of activities for our visitors such as biking, camping, hiking, boating, fishing, skiing and much more in Glacier National Park but no [|hunting], we love our animals. But we do allow pets so you're not leaving no one back at home, but all pets must be either chained or caged up at all times. We also have the best restaurants and grocery stores in Montana for our visitors to take very good care of their stomachs. We also have [|Many Glacier Hotel]s that are very relaxing with beautiful views of the park like [|Glacier Park Lodge] and[| Lake McDonald Lodge].== == =media type="custom" key="5409895"= ==media type="custom" key="5409905"==
