Livingston Range
The 444th highest mountain range in the world
The Livingston Range is a mountain range located primarily in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana, and in the extreme southeastern section of the Canadian province of British Columbia. The range is 36 miles (58 km) long and 28 miles (45 km) wide. Over 15 summits exceed 9,000 ft (2, 700 m) above sea level, and the highest point is Kintla Peak at 10,101 feet (3, 079 m). (While these elevations are not particularly high for North American mountains, they are high compared to the roughly 4,000 foot (1, 200 m) elevation of the nearby valleys, making for particularly dramatic peaks.) The Livingston Range was uplifted beginning 170 million years ago when the Lewis Overthrust fault pushed an enormous slab of precambrian rocks 3 mi (4.8 km) thick, 50 miles (80 km) wide and 160 miles (260 km) long over newer rocks of the cretaceous period.
