mountains with green trees near body of water

Our plan was to stay at each of the classic lodges in Glacier Park. Our second stop was at the Many Glacier Hotel on Swiftcurrent Lake. Every view is gorgeous but timing is important if you want a good reflection. I rose early before the first hiker’s boat left the dock to transport adventurers across the lake to hit the trails. While the water was still calm I caught this view toward Grinnell Point. While these amazing lodges are national treasures that draw the thousands, it’s special to capture these nature photos without the evidence of other travelers.
