Gallatin Range

The Gallatin Range is a mountain range located primarily in southwestern Montana, with a small portion extending into northwestern Wyoming. Characterized by rugged, glaciated peaks and deep valleys, the range features a diverse array of terrain and ecosystems. The Gallatin Range is part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and shares borders with Yellowstone National Park, providing access to vast wilderness areas and abundant wildlife. The range's geology is dominated by sedimentary and volcanic rocks, resulting in dramatic cliffs, cirques, and alpine lakes throughout the landscape.
