Sperry Chalet Views
Views of the surrounding high-alpine landscape near Sperry Chalet in Glacier National Park, Montana, United States, on September 7, 2025, highlight expansive valley vistas, jagged cliffs, and lingering Canadian wildfire smoke during peak fire season. Much of the forest in the basin below still shows the impact of the 2017 Sprague Fire, with a mix of charred snags and new growth. The area remains accessible by trail or horseback, and native vegetation such as elderberry bushes flourishes among rocky slopes. These scenes underscore both the beauty and fragility of Glacier's wilderness around one of its most iconic backcountry lodges. (Photo by Patrick Gorski/NurPhoto)
