WEST GLACIER, MONT. – Campgrounds at Glacier National Park begin transitioning to primitive status in early September. When campgrounds are in primitive status NO water is provided. Any water taken from streams or lakes requires treatment before use. Primitive and winter front-country campgrounds include pit toilets, no running water and only a limited number of sites.
Winter camping is available at St. Mary and in the Apgar picnic area from December 1 through the night of March 31. There is no fee for winter camping; however, a valid entrance pass is required.
Get transition status for all Glacier campgrounds
FOXBORO - After a long week at work, many people like to hunker down and hibernate in their homes for the weekend during the cold winter months. Even those who like nothing more than the great outdoors save their getting-away-from-it-all yearnings for the warm summer months.
Not Janine and Bob Eaton of Whitman. They are among a growing number of people who enjoy winter camping almost as much as more traditional summer camping.
“When you have such a hectic life all week, it’s nice to get away and meet up with friends,” said Janine, 58, a social worker who was enjoying a recent weekend at Normandy Farms campground with her husband. “There are about 12 of us who meet here regularly.”
In addition to playing cards, the Eatons and their friends enjoy sitting around a wood-burning barrel stove and drinking hot apple cider, roasting marshmallows, and looking up at the clear night sky where, she says, “the stars are brighter than you can even imagine.”
The Eatons purchased a “Winter Wonderland” package at Normandy Farms, where for $845, they have a permanent site on which they can leave their camper between Nov. 1 and March 31 and use it on weekends, holidays and school vacations.
They also have use of the skating pond, indoor pool and sauna, a fitness center and 20,000-square-foot recreation lodge where there is an arcade and daily activities ranging from movies to arts and crafts to bingo and card tournaments.
