Lake Nooney is located in Glacier National Park, in the U. S. state of Montana. The lake is east of Mount Custer and .50 miles (0.80 km) west of Lake Wurdeman. The Herbst Glacier is located above the lake to the northwest.[2] Rock flour (silt) from melting glaciers make the lake appear opaque turquoise in color.
