Glacier National Park Entry 1

Hi, my name is Riley Cochran.  I am 22 years old and am a junior at the University of Colorado Denver.  I am getting a bachelors degree in psychology with the hopes of having a future career in the field of addiction counseling.  I have lived in Denver, Colorado for almost all of my life.  I absolutely love Colorado and all of the activities that it has to offer.  It is a great mixture of outdoor adventures with a little bit of city life.  I grew up going to various ski resorts in the rocky mountains but spent a majority of my winter weekends in Breckenridge, CO.  My exposure to the Rocky Mountains has made me very enthusiastic about snowboarding, mountain biking, fishing, camping, and many other outdoor activities.  I spent a year and a half of my life going to school in Kalispell, Montana.  While I was living in Kalispell I was able to stumble upon what I believe to be one of the most beautiful places in the United States and possibly the world.  This place is Glacier National Park.

  

It is a very mountainous and unique national forest located in Northern Montana right along the Canadian border.  

I have decided to blog about this location because of my passion and love for the mountainous terrain that is a lot like our rocky mountains here in Colorado but also very unique. 

  I am very interested to explore the uniqueness of Glacier National Park from a geographical perspective.
