This composition presents my most visited spectacle within Glacier National Park. Upper Two Medicine Lake embodies a sense of sleepwalking solitude I didn't discover anywhere else during my backpack guiding season. Within Glacier’s three-million acre time machine of beauty, this lake takes you in and melts the rest of the world away. I hiked to this area six different times between July and August 2021, leading groups, family, and adventuring on my own. Nowhere else did the galaxy shine brighter, water cleanse deeper, and rocks skip farther than Upper Two Medicine Lake. Most dominant in the background, sits Lone Walker Mountain- a horn with short prominence dividing the desolate Coal Creek region, Nyack Creek, Aurice Lake (plus other small tarns), and Upper Two Medicine. This dark, mystifying capture presents the stillness of the lake with Rising Bull Ridge, Lone Walker Mountain, and the south slope of massive Mount Helen soaking up twilight.
