St Mary Lake

At an altitude of almost 1400 m, St. Mary Lake is the second largest lake in Glacier National Park, spanning more than 15 square kilometers. Its clear, cold waters rarely exceed 10 ° C and contain different varieties of trout. It is one of the park's 300 lakes (only 130 are named). Some are accessible by car, while others can only be reached after several days of walking. The third photo shows Lake McDonald. Around the lakes in the park, and with a little luck, it is possible to observe the national icon of the United States: the bald eagle.
