Rising Wolf Mountain

Another favorite peak. For those of you who follow my stream you know that mountains are my primary image fixation. Nature's Cathedral's to me. Plus the ecosystems they create are so full of water features, animals and incredible beauty that it is always hard to leave.

 

Lower Two Medicine lake in view.

 

"Rising Wolf Mountain (9,513 feet (2,900 m)) is located in the Lewis Range, Glacier National Park. The peak is in the southeastern section of the park and rises dramatically above the Two Medicine region and more than 4,450 ft (1,360 m) above Two Medicine Lake immediately to the south. This massive mountains base circumference is 20 miles!

 

Rising Wolf Mountain was named after Hugh Monroe, a fur trader who lived with the Pikunis and gave him the name Rising Wolf. After his death, his close friend and author James Willard Schultz named the peak after Monroe."

Another feature that stands out with this peak is the amazing rich red colors throughout.
