I knew this mountain right away... and look at all the snow. That is Great Northern Mountain... a beauty.
Great Northern Mountain is a prominent 8,705-foot-elevation (2,653-meter) mountain summit located in Flathead County. It is situated in the Flathead National Forest, in the Flathead Range, west of the Continental Divide.
Topographic relief is significant as the west aspect rises 5,100 feet (1,600 meters) above Hungry Horse Reservoir in four miles, and the east aspect rises the same in five miles above the Middle Fork Flathead Valley. This climate supports the Stanton Glacier on the north slope.
