Glacier National Park – Part 6

P1010025

Wild Goose Island St Mary Lake Glacier National Park

On July 19th we did a hike from Sun Point to Baring Falls. The whole hike was along St. Mary Lake, on the east side of Glacier National Park. It was mid-70s and very windy.

We stopped along the way at a few of the pullouts to take pictures.

Glacier 6

We had lunch at the Sun Point Picnic area overlooking a small part of St. Mary Lake. The glacially carved lake is 10 miles long and 300 feet deep!
