Water People Tours Created
Started offering tours on the Flathead Indian Reservation, Glacier National Park, the National Bison Range, Flathead Lake and surrounding areas.
The Green Camp Idea
“We aim to do more than just provide historical and educational tours. While much of the land around Flathead Lake is developed, our campsite remains primitive, and we intend to keep it that way. Our goal is to preserve our history and educate visitors about eco-consciousness. By offering camping, we minimize our footprint on the lakeshore, respecting both wildlife and the cultural/spiritual qualities of the land.”
