I captured the images on this page at Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park World Heritage Site, which contains two parks:

Glacier National Park, Montana, USA. New 2007 image gallery of 120 images.
Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, CANADA.

After exploring many of the great mountains of the world, I was very impressed by the spectacular and varied beauty in these wonderful world-class parks. I was surprised by the fantastic and colorful rock patterns at every scale, from inches to miles, throughout these parks, as shown further below on this page. I was able to photograph various wild animals including mountain goats, deer, marmots, and ptarmigan, as shown below. Many wonderful day hikes await the visitor, and I would love to return for more nature walks, hikes, and backpacking trips.
