[Illustration: The landform of Glacier National Park is a monument

to the power of moving ice. This view from Stoney Indian Pass is

startlingly different from the scene of a million years ago, when

the glaciers of the Pleistocene were sculpturing the land. Only the

higher peaks would then have been visible above the blanket of ice

that flowed like a slow-moving river down into the Mokowanis Valley

and out into the Great Plains beyond.]
