  • Glacier Country
    GLACIER COUNTRY 24 GLACIER COUNTRY - VISITMT.COM GLACIER COUNTRY www.glaciermt.com · 800.338.5072 Glacier Country is the Montana that people who have never been to Montana tend to envision—woodsy, with alpine lakes and towering mountain panoramas; wild, with bison, bears and huckleberries galore. Glacier National Park, the quintessential postcard snap, does nothing to dispel this notion, while areas like the Seeley-Swan, the Bitterroot Valley and the National Bison Range in Moiese only bolster the region’s majestic reputation. There’s no shortage of ways to soak up all this grandeur, either. For starters, you’ll see plenty just through your car windows, or, to shake the distraction of driving, the viewing car of Amtrak’s Empire Builder line. For a little recreation with your scenery, raft trips, horseback trail rides, bike paths, snowmobile trips, cross-country outings and downhill ski days all guarantee views and wildlife sightings. You can even put a few major dents in your bucket list here—tracking untouched powder on a backcountry snowcat adventure or gaping at high- altitude panoramas from a helicopter tour high above the Rocky Mountains. While your overworked camera recharges, hit Missoula, where eateries serving up locally sourced products, farmers markets and chocolatiers mingle with cowboy bars and hunting supply stores. Or roll into Bigfork for gourmet cuisine, art galleries and golf. Whether you GLACIER COUNTRY snowmobile or skinny-ski, eat sushi or bison burgers, swill microbrews or local wines, Glacier Country tends to feel like the Montana you’ve always imagined: often homegrown, occasionally cosmopolitan and always beautiful.

TUESDAY February 11,1992 Vol. 94. Issue 54 the buff? The University of Montana Four protesters arrested at Baucus' Missoula office By Karen Coates and Randi Erickson Kaimin Reporters U.S. Sen. Max Baucus met opposition to his wilderness bill just about everywhere he went in Missoula Monday, including at his office where four Earth First activists were arrested after locking themselves together around a pillar. The protest was spawned by a similar action last week in which seven members of the environmental activist group chained themselves to the same pillar in Baucus* office. According to an Earth First statement, protesters want Baucus to “discontinue his attempts to place millions of acres of wilderness into the filthy, corrupt hands of Forest Service timber beasts.” Demonstrators filled the senator’s office to protest the Baucus-Burns wilderness bill, which releases 4 million acres of roadless wild lands in Montana for use by timber and mining industries.
