Campbell Mountain

Campbell Mountain (8,249 feet (2,514 m)) is located in the Livingston Range, Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana.

[3] Campbell Mountain rises more than 4,000 feet (1,200 m) above the west shore of Waterton Lake.

The mountain is named after Archibald Campbell, who played a role in mapping the international border.

Like other mountains in Glacier National Park, it is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods.

Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was initially uplifted beginning 170 million years ago when the Lewis Overthrust fault pushed an enormous slab of precambrian rocks 3 mi (4.8 km) thick, 50 miles (80 km) wide and 160 miles (260 km) long over younger rock of the cretaceous period.
