I'm always impressed with the varied rich colors of the rocks, boulders and mountains of Glacier Park. Pretty much any color can be found there. According to GNP their striking color comes from the small amount of iron in their composition. Red means oxygen was present when the rock formed, green means the atmosphere was lacking oxygen.

Here's an example taken at Many Glacier.

Thanks for taking a look!

Have a wonderful weekend!
