Company Mountain Scene
On the left is Mt. Powell (10,164-ft) and over to the right of the ridge is Deer Mountain Lodge (9765-ft). See the view looking northwesterly here ....and in-between them is "The Crater". You can view these beautiful mountains off I-90 in Galen, Montana. They are especially gorgeous to see a little after winter when they still have snow on them.
