The Multicolored Rocks of Lake McDonald

Lake McDonald, located in Montana’s Glacier National Park, is home to one of the most stunning natural phenomena on

the planet: colored pebbles. The pebbles, which range in size from small rocks to larger boulders, can be found along the

lake’s shores and are a stunning testament to nature’s power and beauty.

The vibrant colors of these pebbles set them apart. The pebbles range in color from deep blues and greens to bright pinks

and oranges. The colors are the result of a unique geological process that occurred thousands of years ago.

Lake McDonald’s pebbles were formed by natural erosion of the surrounding mountains. As the mountains eroded, the

rocks and minerals that comprised them were broken down into smaller and smaller particles. These particles eventually

made their way into the lake, where the action of the water and wind tumbled and smoothed them.

The pebbles were coated in layers of fine sediment and minerals as they were tossed around in the lake. These layers accumulated

and solidified over time, resulting in the beautiful and colorful pebbles we see today.
