What is the altitude difference between the lake and the summits?

Thanks! The Lake is at 4484 and Going to the Sun is at 9642 - so not quite 5200 feet.

Thank you, Moni - ouph, I have to calculate, 5200 feet (your?, my?) that makes about 1730 m, right? ;-)

Verzeihung! I should have looked at your profile page to see you would prefer meters. Saint Mary's Lake is at 1367 meters and Going to the Sun is at 2939 meters, a difference of 1572 meters. Glacier National Park has very few 3000 meters peaks, but it is very rugged terrain.
