Welcome to this small photographic gallery of the amazing state of Montana.

Montana SunriseMontana Sunrise

Montana sunrises illuminate the "Big Sky Country" with dramatic mountain  vibrant scattering light effects, and extreme seasonal time shifts.

Because light travels a much longer distance through the atmosphere at sunrise, shorter blue wavelengths scatter away while dramatic red, orange, and yellow hues dominate the wide horizon.

  • The "Hungry Horse Lake" name comes from a harsh winter in 1900 when two logging horses named Tex and Jerry wandered into deep snow. They spent a month on their own before rescuers found them gaunt, hungry, but alive.

  • The lake was formed by the completion of the Hungry Horse Dam in 1953.


  • Massive ice age glaciers carved out the broad, U-shaped basin where Lake McDonald now sits.
