Mount Jackson offers big views, fun climbing

Glacier National Park holds more than 150 named mountain peaks, but only six climb above 10,000 feet in elevation. Many a mountaineer has sought to bag each of these high points, and Mount Jackson is often one of the first to be checked off the list due to its central location and impressive stature.
