Glacier Run

Where wilderness meets the glacier's edge

About This Exhibit

Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of an imaginary gold mining town on the edge of the arctic wilderness. Award-winning Glacier Run will transport you to a place where humankind and nature strive to co-exist. Peer over the glacial cliffs to connect with magnificent animals like polar and grizzly bears. Watch the spectacular behaviors of the graceful seals and sea lions. Trek over to Snow Leopard Pass and meet our three snow leopards and learn more about this elusive animal species and how we can help these cats survive.
