Stop by our Exit Glacier Nature Center and see if there is a backpack available for you to check out. Take it to the glacier and make art. The Discovery packs are more suited for ages seven and up. Use the supplies in the pack to help make observations in an incredible glacially carved landscape. If you wish to donate your art to the park you can do that or we might take a picture of you and feature your art on our website.
