モンタナの湖・トップ20

This area is really so incredibly beautiful.

July to August is the perfect time to visit iceberg lake!

Great Hike in Glacier National Park

Large hotel directly on the lake shore, restaurant with a view over the lake, large hiking car park 100m away

Great alpine lake sitting in a cirque/basin at the base of Sacajawea Peak. The main access trail is a gentle grade of switchbacks to the lake's edge for magnificent views of the pristine lake and the dramatic mountains behind. There is a rougher rooted out trail that encircles the lake, and you can take the steps back up to the trail head, which is a "shortcut". Highly recommended! There are longer trails that access the lake, too, if you want a longer hike and better workout. Campground nearby, mostly just tents, since trailers can't be hauled up the rough access road.

Snyder Lake lies in a basin surrounded by 8565-foot Mt. Brown towards the north, and Edwards Mountain towards the south. Both the lake and creek are named after George Snyder, the man who built a framed, two-story hotel in 1895 at the present day site of the Lake McDonald Lodge.

Fairy Lake is a high elevation lake tucked in the trees just below treeline in Custer Gallatin National Forest. There is camping close by and a trailhead for gaining access to Sacagawea Peak and Bridger Ridge. The reservoir stays frozen late into the springs and has a small nature trail that travels around the banks.
