Living with the natural world — and protecting it — is central to life in Glacier View Meadows. Ecology and wildfire mitigation are among the topics residents ask about most.
GVM Ecology Team
The Ecology Committee of the Board has kept its own website for years, with resources on wildlife, plants, noxious weeds, trails, and the demonstration garden.

Fire protection
Glacier View Meadows is served by the Glacier View Fire District. The Fire District strongly recommends reflective house-number signs so crews can find homes quickly in an emergency — the Glacier Gals sell them; order forms are at the GVM office.
In an emergency, always call 911.
