Emigrant Peak is a striking mountain located in Montana’s Paradise Valley, just east of the town of Emigrant and north of Yellowstone National Park. Part of the Absaroka Range, the peak surges abruptly to an elevation of 10,926 feet. Its summit towers more than 6,000 feet above the Yellowstone River, which winds through the valley floor below.
Yesterday, on a drive through
Paradise Valley on the way to a teaching engagement with the Yellowstone Park
electricians, Desiree and I stopped to admire Emigrant Peak from a fishing
access along the Yellowstone River.
