McClintock Peak (8,290 feet (2,527 m)) is located in the Lewis Range, Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana.
The Lake of the Seven Winds sits below the east slopes of the peak and Mount Morgan is .56 mi (0.90 km) to the south.
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.
Due to its altitude, it receives precipitation all year, as snow in winter, and as thunderstorms in summer.
