Steptoe Butte

Tired of the rain in Glacier National Park we decided to head out early. We took a detour home by the Steptoe Butte State Park. I've heard a lot about this place from photographers...

Steptoe Butte State Park is a 150-acre, 3,612-foot-tall natural monument. Thimble-shaped, the quartzite butte looms in bald grandeur over the prevailing flat lands. The park is famous for its stark, dramatic beauty and the panoramic view it provides of surrounding farmlands, the Blue Mountains, and other neighboring ranges and peaks. From the top of the butte, the eye can see 200 miles.
