Random camping is permitted beyond 5 km from pavement. Glacier has three designated backcountry campsites on the Bald Hills, above the Copperstain Trail: Copperstain Pass, Caribou Pass and 20-mile. Each has tent pads and food storage poles to place food out of reach of bears. Open fires are not permitted in the backcountry. Backcountry campers require a Wilderness Pass. The Wilderness Pass is available at $9.00/person/night.
