Located in the North Fork area of Glacier National Park is Bowman Lake Campground. There are 46 sites nestled in trees on the shore of the picturesque Bowman Lake. Each with a table and fire ring. Primitive camping. Vault toilets and water available. Proper food storage is a must because this is bear country. Vehicles over 21' in length or trailer combinations are prohibited. The drive is along a rough dirt road where wolves and bears can occasionally be spotted. On the way to the campground, you pass through the tiny town of Polebridge.
