Going to the Sun Mountain is located in Glacier National Park (U.S.) and rises dramatically above St. Mary valley just north of the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Numerous Blackfeet Indian legends are credited with the origins of the mountains' name. Used by the Blackfeet as a location for vision quests, it is one of the most accessible major mountain peaks in Glacier National Park. According to several sources, the actual Blackfeet name for the mountain is "The-Face-of-Sour-Spirit-Who-Went-Back-to-The-Sun-After-His-Work-Was-Done Mountain", in explanation of the snowfields on the mountainside which, as viewed from the west, make the outline of a face.
