Visitation at Glacier National Park has been reaching record numbers over the last few years during the summer and winter months, creating restroom shortages throughout the park in the summer, and has increased the need for vault toilets for the shoulder seasons, and even winter months.
This project would install a double-stall vault toilet near the camp store in Two Medicine – a popular winter destination by cross country skiers. Two Medicine is one of the highest winter visitation areas on the east side of the park and the only available restroom from October 1 to May 20 is in the campground which is hard to access in the deep snow. An additional restroom would also be useful in the summer months when visitation to the area is at its peak and facilities are limited.
