Glacier National Park - Helicopter Tours

There are two helicopter companies which have been operating tours over Glacier National Park for years. Each has provided emergency rescue support to the park in years past. They are based out of West Glacier.
I think these two companies do a good job of keeping their distance above the park. It is kind of neat to be standing on top of a mountain as they go by. Still other park visitors are bothered. It is a complicated issue. Helicopter flights over Glacier are not regulated by the park. Many feel that it introduces pollution and noise into a pristine protected area.
For now then Helicopter tours are here. And for those that are interested this is one of best ways to take in the awesome scenery abundant in Glacier. Here are the two recommended operators: |
