Hikers Attempt to Escape Glacier National Park Wildfire by Driving (Video)

A father and son barely escaped with their lives during the wildfire at Glacier National Park last week. 

According to Yahoo

Justin Bilton told Storyful that he and his father saw the then small Howe Ridge Fire begin to spread from 5 acres to over 2000 in a matter of hours.

“We hiked back to the car to get out where it was parked at the end of a dead end road”, Bilton said. “After we were stopped by the downed tree, we reversed back through all of this and were rescued by two park employees on a boat. They saved our lives”.
