Glacier National Park is an
amazing place. From vast landscapes and lakes, to wildflowers and
huckleberries, to bears and birds - Glacier is an important destination for any
landscape/wildlife photographer who shoots in the American West. This
safari comes in September to take advantage of autumn colors and foliage, and
high wildlife activity as animals prepare for winter. We spend each day in
a different area of the park, and each morning at a peak spot in that area.
We shoot the east and west sides of Logan Pass, Many Glacier, and the Polebridge
Road into northwestern Glacier and Kintla and Bowman Lakes. The
photography generally runs about 60% percent landscapes and 40% wildlife - but
that can change minute by minute as we explore the park. This safari is limited to
3 photographers riding with me on the safari. Parking can be extremely
difficult so we keep the vehicles to just my truck in the park.
Reservations
We meet in Montana outside the west entrance to Glacier, on
Sunday night, September 17. While pleasant during the day, the weather can change quickly - with
mornings being quite cold and snow possible anytime - so layered clothing and shooting gloves, boots, a
hat - are a must to stay comfortable.
