Both parks are declared Biosphere Reserves by UNESCO and their union as a World Heritage Site. HistoryThe union of the parks was achieved through the efforts of Rotary International members from Alberta and Montana, on June 18, 1932. The dedication address was given by Sir Charles Arthur Mander, 2nd Baronet. The two parks are administered separately and have separate entrance fees. In 2007, the International Dark-Sky Association named Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park the International Dark-Sky Park.[1] Border crossing{{main|Chief Mountain Border Crossing}}The Chief Mountain Border Crossing, reached by Montana Highway 17 from the American side and by Alberta Highway 6 from the Canadian side, is the only road border crossing within the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. It is one of only two on the US-Canada border that are closed in winter (Poker Creek - Little Gold Creek Border Crossing is the other).
