Elmo Flathead Lake
Cattle graze beneath expansive views of Flathead Lake near Elmo, Montana, United States, on May 18, 2025, as the spring sun sets over the Mission Mountains. In the distance, the images capture Wild Horse Island State Park, part of Flathead Lake--the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River. With lush green pastures, working livestock, and alpine ridgelines still capped with snow, the landscape reflects a harmonious blend of ranching life and natural beauty. Rolling hills are punctuated by evergreen stands and dotted with rural homesteads. Flathead Lake serves as a hub for fishing, recreation, and wildlife viewing, while the nearby lands of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes preserve the region's rich cultural heritage.
