Glacier is drastically and visually reduced. Thanks to sharing these beautiful landscape photos

Beautiful photos. But, where are the glaciers?

It's not the best, but the photo below shows a bit more of Grinnell Glacier.

It wasn't that long ago, at least geologically speaking, that the foreground is this photo and the first one above would have been covered by glacier. Of course the massive glaciers that formed the park's valleys and shaped its peaks disappeared 10,000 years ago. The ancestors of the glaciers that remain today began to recede in the 1850's. At that time there were about 150 glaciers in the future park boundaries. When the park was formed in 1910 there were about 110. By the mid 1960's there were 35 and today there are 25. Those 25 that remain have receded 40% to 85% since the 1960's.

These look great! I'll be visiting Glacier in September this year and I'm hoping to take some pictures half as good as these.

Be prepared for smoke and haze if the west coast fires are still burning - its been a horrible summer in that regard. We've had rain this last week, but California hasn't. It's heartbreaking!

Ah darn, thanks the heads up! We've been getting tons of smoke in Colorado this summer and I didn't realize the smoke was going so far north.

We usually get more smoke than Colorado, as it can come from anywhere between BC and California.

One good way to check is to go to the National Weather service forecast page. Down near the bottom are links to various radar images.

For example - here is Missoula:

https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=46.8728&lon=-113.9962#.YSrGbdNKjFo

down below the forecast is a little visible radar image. Click on that and you will get many options to choose from. The first one, "Geocolor" is the visible and you can then select the animation loop. That will show you really clearly where the smoke is and where it's going. If you play around with other locations, e.g., Old Faithful, you'll get a different, more easterly view of what's going on.

I hope that helps!
