We went to Montana last September to watch Incubus Concert, and since we were there already we went to Glacier National Park and hiked up to this beautiful lake. Avalanche Lake is so beautiful. It was a 2 miles hike and it took us more than an hour to get there. We are not hikers so we were so slow we get tired so easily lol. The hike was really worth it, it was so cloudy, gloomy and rainy that time. My photos don't do justice on how beautiful it is. Im pretty sure if the weather wasn't like this, pictures will turns out more prettier than the photos i took.
Avalanche Lake is located in Glacier National Park, in the U.S. state of Montana. Avalanche Lake is southwest of Bearhat Mountain and receives meltwater from Sperry Glacier. Avalanche Lake is a 2 miles hike from the trailhead along the Trail of the Cedars. The lake sits at the base of 8694-foot Bearhat Mountain, which rises almost 4800 feet above the lake towards the northeast. The mountain dominating the view towards the south is 7886-foot Little Matterhorn. If you look closely at the cliffs and mountains that surround the lake you'll notice several long waterfalls plunging hundreds of feet as they make their way towards the shore. Many of these waterfalls originate from Sperry Glacier, which rests beyond Little Matterhorn and can't be seen from the lake.
