Wildlife and Recreation
The Glacier Club property has an ideal combination of wildlife habitat, manicured lawns, gardens, fairways and greens in a very private setting. Commonly seen are migrating elk, deer, red tail hawks, eagles, and many other small animals and birds. Many of these will be seen around the estate and are a welcome reminder of the sanctuary that has been created within the Glacier Club. While the recreational opportunities have been covered earlier, it is worth restating that the local area is phenomenally gifted with diversity and a myriad of options for most outdoor activities and pursuits.
