Watch the Milky Way from St. Mary, Glacier National Park:

Imagine laying on your back in the St. Mary valley and looking straight up at the sky.
That is your view from this webcam. On a clear night the image of the sky is spectacular,
so visit after dark for the best experience. The tan shape at the top is the Dusty Star
Observatory. The other buildings in the area include the St. Mary Visitor Center and
the St. Mary entrance station. The center of the image looks straight up at the sky.
If the circular image is a clock, the Dusty star Observatory is to the east at 12'clock,
north is at 3 o'clock, west is at 6 o'clock. and south is at 9 o'clock.

It’s not easy to stay awake late enough to see the night sky on our live allsky webcam
so each morning a time-lapse video of the previous night’s sky is available to watch.

Click on the night sky image next to this text, or click the link below, to watch the video.
Each video will only be available for 24 hours. The short video may show clouds streaking
past, rain, or lightning flashing inside thunderstorms. If the skies are clear, you will see
the moon, stars, and the milky way rising overhead.
