Running Eagle Falls, Glacier NP

After our hike to Scenic Point, we did the short walk to Running Eagle Falls in the Two Medicine area, 0.6 miles round trip.



View of Running Eagle Falls, which lies along the outlet stream between Two Medicine Lake and Lower Two Medicine Lake. Rising Wolf Mountain in the background.

note water flows out from the middle of the rock as well as over the top, hence the nickname Trick Falls. In the summer, the water can only be seen coming out of the lower portion. Sometimes in the Spring, the water flowing over the top obscures the water coming out lower. I feel so blessed that we saw the falls when both sections were easily seen.
