Bear Grass

Glacier National Park is known for its glaciers
but it has so many other treasures
Ferocious grizzly bears, moose, and wolverines
From towering glacier-covered peaks
to beautiful blue lakes fed by melting glaciers
Waterfalls cascading in multiple layers
Sitka Valerian, Penstemon, Alpine Paintbrush, Harebells, Yarrow, Cow Parsnip, & Glacier Lilies
The will make you giddy, they will make you silly
One day the glaciers will melt, the peaks will weather away, and the waterfalls will no longer sway
But what does Glacier have that comes back every five to 10 years
that will reduce you to tears?
The Bear Grass Bloom
Yes, there are too many people
But there’s still room
For us to all enjoy the gorgeous Bear Grass Bloom
