Mad Wolf Mountain is located in the Lewis Range of the Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana.[3] Mad Wolf Mountain is just west of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation, and rises abruptly above the Great Plains. It stands at 8,341 feet, or 2,542 meters. A Blackfeet name for the mountain was Muk-sin-a', or "Angry Woman",[4] named for a Blackfeet woman who captured an enemy man attempting to steal horses.[5]
