Mount Brown, Mountain peak in Glacier National Park, Montana, US.
Mount Brown rises to an elevation of 2611 meters, featuring steep rocky slopes and panoramic views across Glacier National Park's western region.
The mountain received its name from William Brown, who completed the first recorded ascent during an 1894 camping expedition near Lake McDonald.
The Mount Brown Fire Lookout station, constructed in 1929, represents early conservation efforts and wildfire management practices in national parks.
The Mount Brown Lookout Trail begins at Lake McDonald Lodge, climbing 1329 meters over 5.4 miles through dense forest and rocky terrain.
The southwestern ridge contains sections requiring class 4 climbing techniques, making it a technical challenge for mountaineers seeking the summit.
