Join Lysander Spooner University on our 5th annual Citizen Glaciology conference/hike/festival in East Glacier, Montana. We will again meet in the lobby of the beautiful East Glacier Lodge (also known as the Glacier Park Resort) September 13, 8:00 to 9:00 a.m.ish.
Depending on numbers, we hope to have several groups hike into glacier areas of Glacier National Park and surrounding areas and photograph the glaciers at their lowest point of the year.
This will be a great opportunity to meet fun people and exchange ideas and information about government claims, the state of the environment, and life.
Glaciers in Glacier National Park generally grow for about 9 months and melt for 3 months. It is only at summer’s end that one can assess whether the glaciers are growing or shrinking.
Lysander Spooner University is developing a photo archive of glaciers taken at similar locations and dates. There are several glaciers we have never seen as they are located many miles into rugged terrain. WE NEED STRONG HIKERS!
Also, please bring your passport if you have one, as there are several trails that can only be accessed from the Canadian side.
Please contact Roger Roots at [email protected] if you can stay additional days, if you can camp or if you can stay at one of the area’s great lodges. 775-764-9347.
We are also hoping to put on a speakers’ event and conference. STAY TUNED!
