Description

Wikipedia

Stanton Mountain is a 7,750 feet (2,360 m) mountain summit located in the Livingston Range, of Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. Stanton Mountain rises more than 4,500 feet (1,400 m) above the northern shore of Lake McDonald. The mountain's name refers to Mrs. Lottie Stanton who lived near the west side of the park in the late 1800s, and with her husband operated a livery stable in historic Demersville. She was a pioneering woman who followed the construction camps during the railroad building days. The mountain's name was officially adopted in 1929. In the late 1800s it was known as Mt. Lottie Stanton. The nearest higher peak is Mount Vaught, 1.38 miles (2.22 km) to the northeast. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into tributaries of the Flathead River.
