Glacier National Park officials say snow conditions will delay the opening of the Two Medicine Campground. Several feet of snow still cover most of the camp sites, and access to facilities is limited. The campground may open by June 6, or as conditions allow.

About 55 camping sites will be available at the Many Glacier Campground on Friday, May 30, ar noon, but water is not available, and only pit toilets will be available. Water may be available over the weekend, but campers should be prepared and arrive with their own water.

The St. Mary Campground is open with services and about 50 sites available at this time. Potable water and flush toilets are available. The St. Mary Campground will be available by reservation beginning June 1 through the National Recreation Reservation System at http://www.recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777.

On the west side of the park, the Apgar Campground is open with services. The Fish Creek Campground will open June 1 with sites available through the National Recreation Reservation System. Sprague Creek and Bowman Lake campgrounds are open, focused for tent camping.
