St. Mary Lake, Glacier NP, Montana

"Far away in Montana, hidden from view by clustering mountain-peaks, lies an unmapped northwestern corner- the Crown of the Continent. The water from the crusted snowdrift which caps the peak of a lofty mountain there trickles into tiny rills, which hurry along north, south, east and west, and growing to rivers, at last pour their currents into three seas. From this mountain-peak the Pacific and the Arctic oceans and the Gulf of Mexico receive each its tribute. Here is a land of striking scenery"
                    George Bird Grinnell, The Century Magazine 1901

Mount Moriah Cemetery: Deadwood, SD

"My dearly beloved, if I am to die today and never see the sweet face of you again I want you to know that I am no great man and I am lucky to have such a woman as you"
                               Wild Bill Hickok

Mt Moriah-Deadwood- The Overlook Version 2

From Wikipedia:

Mount Moriah Cemetery on Mount Moriah in Deadwood, Lawrence County, South Dakota is the burial place of Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane and Seth Bullock, and other notable figures of the Wild West. By tradition, the American flag flies over the cemetery 24 hours a day, rather than merely from sunrise to sunset.
