OverviewWyoming Peak is the highpoint of the Wyoming Range. This impressive mountain is located in west-central Wyoming about 30 miles west of Big Piney. Wyoming Peak is the highest point in Lincoln County, and is located in the Bridger-Teton National Forest. Wyoming Peak is the seventh highest range highpoint in Wyoming. With an elevation of 11,378', Wyoming Peak ranks way down on the Wyoming elevation list. But the new field of Prominence has made Wyoming Peak a more important mountain. With a prominence of 3,538', Wyoming Peak is big enough to make an appearance on the Wyoming Prominence Map.
Getting ThereFrom Big Piney, drive west on Wyoming 350 for 11 miles. The road then turns to dirt. Continue west on the good dirt road, now known as the Middle Piney Road No. 111. Drive about 11 more miles west to a summer camp, then turn left onto Forest Road 10024. Drive about three miles west until the road ends at the scenic Middle Piney Lake. The last two miles of the road past Sacajawea Campground are narrow and winding.
