This isn't good. I've hiked Glacier every summer for just short of a decade, and I've barely scratched the surface. This is NOT the season. It looks like it from the lower altitudes, but it isn't, it's mid-October at the Continental Divide and there's a front going through.

Prayers up for the hikers and just as many for the ones who are searching for them. If they keep their heads and don't leave the trail they have a good chance.

So true Bill. We have already had a snowstorm here in the High Sierra of California and it is only October 14th. I have hiked all over the Sierra but hiking in the wilderness this time of year can be life threatening.
