This is the highline trail straight down on one side there is a cable on the cliff on the right to hang on! Straight down is the road and then from that is straight down is the bottom of the mountain

 On our boat tour of Lake Mcdonald it was so fun and the captain tells lots of stories and history about the park
 Hanging out the windows of the boat
I forgot the name of this mountain but it is meant to look like an indian cheif laying down the highest point is his nose and the right side of the pic with all the trees is his head dress way cool! There was also a mountain that was renamed after a couple that climbed it around the time the park opened and they were the first to climb it no one believed them and 82 years later 2 young guys climbed it and found their note in a bottle with the date so it was renamed Cannon Peak after them! Most of the peaks had cool names and a good story with it!
