The Winter Permit System
“Learn It — Get Your Permit”
Large areas of Glacier National Park are CLOSED for avalanche control using EXPLOSIVES.
“Parks Canada and Canadian Forces operate the world’s largest mobile avalanche control program to keep the Trans-Canada Highway and the Canadian Pacific Railway open through Rogers Pass. If you plan to tour in Glacier National Park, be aware that many areas of the park have restricted and prohibited access in winter — which are defined and managed within the Winter Permit System, a component of the highway avalanche control program.”
— Parks Canada
Please visit Parks Canada to familiarize yourself with the Winter Permit System before using these books and map.
Non-compliance will threaten the future of the Winter Permit System.
