GLACIER NATIONAL PARK’S “GOING-TO-THE-SUN ROAD” ON FOR ITS LATEST OPENING ON RECORD DUE EXCEPTIONAL SNOW AND PERSISTENT COLD
Electroverse ^ | JULY 9, 2020 | CAP ALLON

Snow clearing crews are still battling through Glacier National Park’s Going-to-the-Sun Road even as the calendar reads the second week of July.

As of today, July 9, Montana’s infamous mountain pass remains closed.

Two factors are responsible: 1) last winter’s above-average snowfall, and 2) persistent cold and terrible wintry conditions throughout the spring/summer of 2020.

...

this year will likely break the current record for the road’s latest opening, which stands as July 13 in 2011.

...

Serving as evidence of how the so-called climate experts can get it spectacularly wrong, let’s recall the predictions made by Montana’s National Park Service (NPS) back in the early 2000s.

For almost two decades the NPS warned the world that glaciers at Glacier National Park would be gone by the year 2020. They even went to the trouble of erecting signs across all of its visitor centers prophesying the 2020 doomsday date.

Embarrassingly for these spineless, bandwagon frauds, that deadline of doom is about to uneventfully pass. And in response, the NPS rather sheepishly pulled all ‘2020 signs’ from its displays after the computer models it relied upon from the early 2000s, which convincingly foretold of unending glacial retreat, turned out to be woefully inaccurate.

In fact, the opposite is occurring.

That’s right alarmists, in a supposedly catastrophically warming world Going-to-the-Sun-Road is about to witness its latest opening on record.

...

And this trend of falling temperatures and increasing snowpack isn’t confined to Montana. No, it’s occurring across the Northern Hemisphere.

Don’t confuse them with facts, they choose truth over facts, Biden said so.

With Covid and BLM, our Globalist masters may finally move on from Global Warming. Seemingly very different causes, but, mysteriously, all having the same Marxist, totalitarian solution.

Why am I reminded of “settled science”?

FYI: When there is an EARLY opening of this pass, there will be end-to-end coverage by the MSM, count on it!

Many of those who visit Glacier stick primarily to the Going to the Sun Road and never visit the Many Glacier Hotel area. They have missed a great sight. The Going to the Sun Road is fantastic. Many Glacier Hotel, although spartan, is one of the favorite places that we have ever stayed. Reservations are not an easy get, though.

Back in about 1984 we went to Glacier for a week’s backpacking in mid July. The trip we planned turned out not to be possible because the trails and sites were still snowed in. They mapped us out a hike that had just opened. It involved a short tunnel at the top of a mountain. We had to remove the snow to get the door to open.

There was still lots of snow just up hill from the visitor center at Logan Pass.
