Hebgen Lake




One day we left the park and went to Hebgen Lake or Quake Lake. If any of you know the story of Quake Lake it's always been a facinating place to me. In the summer of 1959 right before midnight there was a big Earth Quake and the mountain slid and dammed the river and filled the valley turning it into Quake Lake. The sad thing is 28 people died that night, because the area was filled with campers and vacationers it was a popular resort area. They've left the remains of some of that houses and resorts. I just think it's kind of erie, but people still vacation there.
