Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park

The Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park is the union of Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada and Glacier National Park in the United States. Both parks are declared Biosphere Reserves by UNESCO and their union as a World Heritage Site.

The union of the Waterton Lakes National Park and the Glacier National Park is attributed to a number of individuals throughout the late 1800s and early 1900s. Early proponents of a borderless international park include Canadian George "Kootenay" Brown, a long-time settler and first forest ranger-in-charge of Waterton, and American Albert Henry “Death-on-the-Trail” Reynolds an early ranger of the northern portion of Glacier.
