w w w . d i s t i n c t l y m o n t a n a . c o m 21 The list of ninety-two common birds in Glacier Park in the sum- mer dips to just twenty-eight in the winter months. Elk and mule deer migrate from the high country to lower el- evations where snow is not as deep and food is more accessible; here you can also find moose, whitetail deer, and mountain lion. Smaller animals such as snowshoe hare and weasel turn white as snow in the winter to help them stay hidden from prey. A hush falls over Glacier Park, tucked in snugly by a snow blanket that dampens sound and activity. Amidst the quiet, cold clear air and the brightness of a world freshened by new-fallen snow you can find solitude and serenity—inspiring a moment of clarity during confounding times. The world is a beautiful place. Winter is A MOST ELEGANT TIME IN GLACIER PARK Available as wall art or a plush blanket Hand-drawn Vintage Map Glacier National Park
