Split Mountain (13,161 ft (4,011 m)) is located in the Wind River Range in the U.S. state of Wyoming.[3] Split Mountain is the 22nd highest peak in Wyoming.[4] Split Mountain is in the Bridger Wilderness of Bridger-Teton National Forest and is about .70 mi (1.13 km) northwest of Twin Peaks and 1 mi (1.6 km) southeast of Mount Whitecap. Mammoth Glacier is on the northeast slopes of the peak while the smaller Baby Glacier flows down from a spur to the northwest.[3]
