The Gallatin Range (Hyalites south of Bozeman, Montana) // ORIGINAL

The Gallatin Range ORIGINAL 40x13" Ink and Watercolor on watercolor paperThe Gallatin Range lies just south of Bozeman, Montana. It's part of the gigantic Rocky Mountain range. I picked a common view for locals who are out for a hike - Hyalite Lake (Reservoir) and Flander's Wall in the foreground with a a glorious peek-a-boo view of several of the peaks in the Hyalite subrange. All the prominent peaks of this part of the range are identified with name and elevation, including Hyalite Peak, Palace Butte, Mt Bole, Elephant Mountain and Blackmore Peak. Alex Lowe Peak was renamed to honor a local, world class mountaineer who died in 1999.To create this piece, I worked with a Bozeman resident and hiker who provided local information and photos. I also combed through hiker blogs, Google Earth, and USGS maps to pull together this view. Please contact art@elizabethperson.com with any questions. This piece can be shipped.
