Each year millions of people make a journey to a remote section of the United States to visit an area known for its wild beauty and its “untouched by civilization” qualities. Among the attractions is an area known as The Garden Wall, located on the west side of the “Going To The Sun Road”, on the way to Logan Pass. The area is a nearly vertical wall of rock with a large snowfield and a massive snow-covered butte above. During the summer months, as the snow melts, it runs down the rocky cliffs nourishing the lichen, moss, and plants that dwell in the cracks and crevices hence the name Garden Wall.
From the esteemed 'Le Voyageur' series, this piece by John Lichtwardt exemplifies the series' dedication to portraying the vibrant life and color found in the world's most pristine landscapes.
