About Big Horn Mountains

The Bighorn Mountains are a prominent mountain range located in north-central Wyoming and south-central Montana. This rugged, forested range stretches for over 100 miles and is known for its striking granite peaks, deep canyons, alpine lakes, and abundant wildlife. The range's elevation ranges from around 4,000 feet in the foothills to over 13,000 feet at the summit of Cloud Peak, the highest point. The terrain is characterized by steep, rocky slopes, high alpine meadows, and numerous glacial features such as cirques and U-shaped valleys left by past glaciation.
