Download As PDF : Living Across the River from Glacier National Park Joe Novak
Seeing a grizzly bear at close range is an adrenalin rush.
Getting the chance to white-water raft on a wild and scenic river is something that should never be passed up.
Capturing a moose or a herd of elk on film from close range allows you to share that experience with friends who have never or will never get the opportunity to see either one or the other, or both.
How about the chance to hike to a high alpine lake in Glacier National Park where as late as August you'll discover that the last mile of that hike is through snow, and upon reaching the lake you'll see icebergs floating?
Many people would be happy to have any of those experiences even once. For author Joe Novak, now a full-time resident of the North Fork Valley, across the river from Glacier National Park, those and many more experiences like them have become the norm in his life.
This is his story of deciding to buy upon first sight a piece of property far removed from the comforts of civilization.
He immediately fell in love when visiting ten acres that were for sale in 1995. It wasn't the ten acres that left him speechless, but the surrounding area.
To the east he looked into Glacier National Park. To the west were the peaks of the Whitefish Mountain Range. Seven miles to the north was the Canadian border. Those ten acres were surrounded by literally millions of acres of National Park Service and national forest lands.
This is the story of his journey, and the experiences, challenges, and difficulties of living on that land, eventually year-round.
He has survived a forest fire and a near drowning to chronicle the people he has come to know, the seasons, the views, and the wildlife.
It is ultimately a love story-his love of what is commonly known as the North Fork.

Living Across the River from Glacier National Park Joe Novak Reviews
We love Glacier National Park and the area so reading this book enabled us to "visit" during the long winter months! Well written. Thanks!
I thought this book was a fantastic read! Really captures the area and rough living that is the North Fork - so close to Glacier National Park. Not a lot of places like this left in the world and seems like an amazing place to live out your dreams.
I enjoyed the tale of Joe's adventures from start to finish. His description of the land & beauty were done so well. The cover was great for the visuals he describes. I will wonder what happens to all the characters as they appeared to be like family away from home. To be able to reach & do your dream is a wonderful thing in life.
Having been to this area recently, I loved the book! A beautiful place and very interesting read.
This book gave me so much information about the culture and natural circumstances of this area, that at the end I felt like I was there! After visiting Glacier National Park, I was so glad that I had read the book before going, so I could more fully appreciate the experience. Joe Novak captures the essence of living in this area in a very readable way, and I recommend this book to anyone who wants to visit or feel the experience of living in this remote section of Montana.
Having visited Montana many times and the Glacier area several times (his neck of the woods once) this book sounded like something I would really enjoy and it was even better than expected. History, humor, stories, people, events. It had it all.
A thoroughly enjoyable book. Exactly what I was hoping for in this genre of book.
This is a great book. I have had property near the North Fork. this book is true and is about a wonderful way of living. The North Fork is the prettiest, most pure place left in the United States. This is a must read for anyone who likes the outdoors.
