Description
"Running Eagle and Rising Wolf" by Loree Johnson Photography. Located in the Two Medicine Lake area of Glacier National Park, Running Eagle Falls, also known as Trick Falls, is an unusual waterfall. The top tier of the falls comes from a creek spilling over the rock ledge, while the bottom tier flows from an underground cave. Later in the year, the upper fall dries up, leaving only the lower fall flowing. Running Eagle Falls is named for a warrior woman of the Blackfeet Nation who is said to have gone on a vision quest near the falls. It is considered a sacred site by the tribe. Rising Wolf Mountain is the backdrop to this beautiful scene.
