Live Glacier Cams
Two glacier worlds in one collection: Glacier National Park in Montana, and Alaska’s year-round glacier country.
Live webcam on Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park's largest lake — 10 miles long, carved by glaciers, ringed by the Livingston and Lewis Ranges. Watch mirror-like reflections on calm mornings.
Live webcam from Apgar Lookout — an elevated fire-lookout view over Lake McDonald and the Valley of the Continental Divide in Glacier National Park.
Live webcam from the Many Glacier area of Glacier National Park. Mountain valley view with dramatic weather, potential wildlife, and stunning alpine scenery.
Live webcam at Logan Pass, the 6,646-foot high point of the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park — looking over the start of the Hidden Lake Trail. Only accessible once the road clears each summer; mountain goats and bighorn sheep are frequent visitors near the boardwalk.
Live webcam at Apgar Village, Glacier National Park's west-side hub on Lake McDonald. Watch kayakers on the calm lake and the dramatic alpine backdrop of the Garden Wall peaks. Last stop before Going-to-the-Sun Road begins its climb across the Continental Divide.
Live webcam at the Apgar Visitor Center on Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park. Shows the lakeshore and surrounding Livingston Range peaks. Check here for Going-to-the-Sun Road status — the road typically opens fully in early July.
Live webcam at Glacier National Park headquarters, West Glacier, Montana — the park's year-round administrative gateway.
NPS webcam from Apgar Lookout — elevated view over Lake McDonald and the Valley of the Moon. Lake McDonald is Glacier NP's largest lake, reflecting the Lewis Range peaks in glassy water. The historic fire lookout tower offers Glacier's best western-side panoramic view.
NPS webcam at Apgar Visitor Center on Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park. Shows the lakeshore and surrounding Livingston Range peaks. Check here for Going-to-the-Sun Road status — the road typically opens fully in early July.
NPS webcam at Apgar Village, Glacier National Park's west-side hub on Lake McDonald. Watch kayakers on the calm lake and the dramatic alpine backdrop of the Garden Wall peaks. Last stop before Going-to-the-Sun Road begins its climb across the Continental Divide.
NPS webcam at Glacier National Park headquarters, West Glacier, Montana. Gateway to the park's west side and the western trailhead of Going-to-the-Sun Road. Park open year-round; most facilities close after September but some roads stay accessible in winter.
NPS webcam on Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park's largest lake — 10 miles long and 472 ft deep. Watch for moose wading the shoreline at dawn, bald eagles overhead, and the Lewis Range reflected in still water. The lake's multicolored polished pebbles, shaped by 11,000 years of glacial melt, are world famous.
NPS pan-tilt-zoom camera at St. Mary on Glacier National Park's east side. Wide-angle view of St. Mary Lake and the Lewis Range — Wild Goose Island at center lake. East gateway to Going-to-the-Sun Road; dramatic prairie-to-mountain transition starts here.
NPS webcam at the Middle Fork Flathead River bridge, west entrance to Glacier National Park. Wild and Scenic-designated river; watch for kayakers and salmon spawning in autumn. The bridge marks the boundary between Flathead National Forest and the national park.
NPS pan-tilt-zoom webcam on Lake McDonald, rotating to capture Glacier NP's full western panorama. Livingston Range and Garden Wall peaks frame the lake; bears and moose common on the shoreline. Best fall color on the Apgar Lookout trail runs mid-September to mid-October.
NPS webcam at Two Medicine in Glacier National Park's quieter southeast corner. Two Medicine Lake sits below Sinopah Mountain and Rising Wolf — prime grizzly bear habitat. Less crowded than Logan Pass; area has deep significance to the Blackfeet Nation.
NPS webcam at Glacier National Park's West Entrance on US Highway 2. First view of the park for visitors arriving from Kalispell or Missoula. Watch the entrance gate and forested Apgar valley opening toward Lake McDonald beyond.
Live webcam from North Cascades National Park showing the Picket Range from Newhalem Visitor Center. Image refreshes every 15 minutes during summer season.
About these cameras
The Montana side is the National Park Service network in Glacier National Park — Lake McDonald, Apgar, St. Mary and headquarters views that track the seasons dramatically: snowbound into late spring, then a short intense summer around the Going-to-the-Sun Road.
The Alaska side clusters around Girdwood and Alyeska, where cameras look across genuinely glaciated terrain year-round — including the top of Glacier Bowl on the Alyeska ski mountain. If you are comparing, Montana’s cameras are about the landscape; Alaska’s are as much about the weather that makes it.
