Glacier National Park’s Inside North Fork Road is open between Fish Creek and Camas Creek and from Polebridge to the Logging Creek Trailhead.

However, the middle section between Logging Creek Trailhead and Camas Creek will remain closed to vehicles this year. 

The entire length of the Inside North Fork Road is open to hikers and bikers, but they may encounter downed trees in the section closed to motorized traffic.

Annual flooding has caused significant and recurring damage to the Inside North Fork Road, particularly near Anaconda Creek and Logging Creek areas.

Another area of the road between Quartz Lake and Logging Creek is also an area of concern because the North Fork of the Flathead River is undercutting this section of the road.

Recognizing the reoccurring nature of this situation, park officials are researching potential engineering solutions to the recurring problems on the Inside North Fork. 

Once that process is completed, the park will begin a planning effort that will include public involvement in the development of sustainable long-term solutions that increase visitor safety and protect park resources.  

The Inside North Fork Road was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. It is a narrow, gravel road and use of recreational, towed, and low-clearance vehicles is strongly discouraged.
