We had the opportunity to meet this unique individual who is hiking 8,000 miles at age 70 to help raise awareness for a Native American man “Tarzan” in Texas who is on death row for being wrongfully convicted of his crime.

Fred Jones is attempting to complete a calendar Triple Crown within this 2025 year, which means 8,000 miles going over the Appalachian trail, Pacific Crest trail and the Continental Divide Trail right here in our backyard heart of Blackfeet country! In hopes of shining light on the wrongful doings of our court systems.

To follow, support, donate to Fred and Tarzan’s journey follow their website and YouTube channel at Trekfortarzan.com

And Fred congrats on being one of our first CDT finishers this year!

Can’t get a shuttle pass? No worries!
Backpackers Ferry is providing shuttles into Many Glacier all season long.

1. How to reserve a shuttle?
>Submit a booking request on our website backpackersferry.com or call us to reserve!

2. Where does the shuttle do pick-ups at?
>We can pick you up from any location on the West or East side of the park to transport. (Prices vary on pickup location.)

3. Do I need a park shuttle pass if booking with BPF?
>Absolutely not! All you need is your basic park pass, unless you’re staying at the Many Glacier Lodge or have a Many Glacier boat pass. This will work as well.

4. What times can we enter Many Glacier or have to leave?
>Our time is fluid and up to you! You pick your time of pick up and you choose your return trip time as well.
(Even after park hours.)

We understand how frustrating it may be to plan your trip, especially if you’re wanting to experience Many Glacier. Skip the online shuttle lines and hassle of coordinating your Many glacier trip and book with us!
