Redrock Lake is located in Glacier National Park in the U. S. state of Montana. Mount Wilbur is west of Redrock Lake.[2] Prior to entering Redrock Lake, Swiftcurrent Creek tumbles over Redrock Falls, which can be reached after an easy 1.8 miles (2.9 km) hike by way of the Swiftcurrent Pass Trail.[3]
