AL MADISON RIVER CANYON EARTHQUAKE. Most of the state trembled on Aug. 17, 1959, when the Great Montana Earthquake shook loose a moun- tain in picturesque Madison River Canyon, pour- ing millions of tons of rock and earth across the valley floor. The gigantic slide dammed the river and formed a new body of water 7 mi'es long and 300 feet deep, now known as Earthquake Lake. (Color Photo by Ernst Peterson) oc JUN A.M.
