Glacier/Flathead Insider: August 2015

Friday, August 14, 2015. As Sweet as Authentic Montana Honey. Honey is a 12 million dollar industry in Montana," my Montana legislator friend remarked in the midst of a discussion on cottage industries. Montana isn't known for honey, but perhaps it should be. The industry isn't huge, but as far as honey goes, Montana was second in dollars of honey sold only to North Dakota (South Dakota was a close 3rd). Not only are sales high, it tastes pretty amazing too! Employees pour honey into containers. Its late...

http://glacierflatheadinsider.blogspot.com/2015/11/uber-comes-to-kalispell.html
Tuesday, November 3, 2015. Uber Comes to Kalispell? The crowd-sourcing taxi service that has been sweeping the nation is on its way to Montana. Last spring the Montana legislature paved the road legally and now uber is "driving" down that road to Montana. If you're new to the concept of uber check out this link. That walks you through exactly how the process works. Uber is coming to Montana and will make transportation in cities much easier than it was before! Article written by Matt Harrington.

Glacier/Flathead Insider: July 2015

Friday, July 24, 2015. The Glacier National Park Family Photos, Group Pictures and Selfies Conundrum. The person taking the picture extends their arm out, turns the camera toward the group and pushes the button. Easy to take multiple photos, good resolution on people's faces, does not require additional technology (tripod) or people (a volunteer photographer), can be done with any camera phone. You find a random stranger and ask him/her to take a picture of your group. The photographer can make sure ever...

Glacier/Flathead Insider: November 2014
http://glacierflatheadinsider.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 21, 2014. Where to Go for a Cup of Joe in Glacier Country. Colter Coffee in downtown Kalispell. Montana Coffee Traders (Kalispell location). It is sensational. Maybe the best huckleberry product there is. In addition to their coffee they have great hearty breakfasts. There are even bigger tables for larger groups of people. Glacier Perks Coffee House in Lakeside. It is not a huge shop, but can work for both having coffee with friends and reading or studying. Written by Matt Harrington.

Thursday, May 28, 2015. Going-to-the-Sun Congestion and How to Deal with It. That’s the third shuttle! The Highline Trail- one of the most congested hikes in Glacier. The "clean-up crew" before all the cars get to Logan Pass parking lot. A record 2.34 Million people visited Glacier National Park last year! While that may be good news for area businesses that cater to tourists, those of us who want to travel on the famed Going-to-the-Sun scenic highway. Well, you essentially have 4 choices: park shuttles.

Glacier/Flathead Insider: Flying to Montana as Cheaply as Possible -When and What City
http://glacierflatheadinsider.blogspot.com/2015/11/flying-to-montana-as-cheaply-as.html
Tuesday, November 3, 2015. Flying to Montana as Cheaply as Possible -When and What City. In the last couple months I have thought a lot about flying in and out of Montana. I recently visited my sister in Boston, MA and was trying to buy the tickets for the lowest possible price. A flight is such a large percentage of the cost of most vacations that it is worth doing some research. I read a great article. I had all flights starting and ending on Tuesdays. As it happened, none of the flights directly c...

Glacier/Flathead Insider: June 2015

Thursday, June 25, 2015. Iceberg Lake Glacier National Park- the family friendly 10-mile hike. With so many day-hikes to choose from you might think Montanans never hike the same trail in Glacier twice. However, some hikes in Glacier are worth repeating and Iceberg Lake is definitely one of them. About 2 weeks ago, I hiked up to Iceberg Lake for the 3rd time and yet again I was blown away by the captivating rugged amphitheater that holds this classic glacial lake. Thursday, June 11, 2015. Some were spott...

Monday, December 22, 2014. Wait Seven Minutes and the Weather Will Change. But what about the Montana saying “don’t like the weather? Wait ten minutes and it will change”? This saying probably came from January 11. 1980, when the Great Falls International Airport went from a temperature of -32 degrees to 15 degrees in seven minutes! Minutes and it could change 47 degrees! Wednesday, December 10, 2014. Why You Shouldn't Hibernate During Winter in the Flathead Valley. There are a few valid reasons: Going-t...
