Canada and USA boundary marker

Way up high, atop a mountain east of Eureka, Montana, stands a boundary marker, installed about 1911 or so, that marks the border between Canada and the United States.

Kintla Lake in Glacier National Park Montana

Glacier National Park remains one of my favorite spots in all the World.  I am fortunate enough to live in Montana and within a two-hour drive to the Park.  This photo by Kelly Kratzer Fear is of Kintla Lake, one of the most beautiful (and remote) lakes in Glacier. Kintla is in the northwest corner of the Park, near the Canadian Border.
