Summer Weather
Glacier's western valleys generally receive the most
rainfall. Daytime temperatures can exceed 90 degrees F. It
is frequently 10 to 15 degrees cooler at higher elevations.
Strong winds and sunny days predominate on the east side of
the park. Overnight lows throughout the park can drop to
near 20 degrees F, and snow can fall anytime. In August of
1992, a foot of snow fell on the northeastern corner of
Glacier.
Prepare for a variety of conditions and pack accordingly.
You may start the day in a T-shirt and shorts, and need a
parka by evening. Dress in layers. Always bring raingear. |
