scenic vistas.

## Natural Features

Though shade is sparse, the aspen trees that grace St. Mary Campground flutter
in spring and summer breezes and provide colorful splashes of yellow late in
the season. Views of Singleshot, East Flattop and Red Eagle Mountains provide
a dramatic backdrop to the landscape.  
  
St. Mary Lake which, although too cold and occasionally too rough to swim in,
provides refreshing scenery on warm days.

## Nearby Attractions

One must-see attraction is the sister park across the U.S.-Canadian border,
Waterton Lakes National Park. As the other half of the Waterton-Glacier
International Peace Park, Waterton Lakes offers fantastic hiking, scenic boat
cruises and several scenic drives all centered around the Townsite of
Waterton.  
  
Immediately east of Glacier National Park lies the picturesque Blackfeet
Indian Reservation, spanning 1.5 million acres. Visit the Museum of the Plains
Indian, in Browning, Montana, for a fascinating introduction to the rich
cultural heritage of the largest Indian tribe in Montana.
