Medicine Butte, Mountain summit in Uinta County, Wyoming, United States.
Medicine Butte rises to an elevation of 8,610 feet above sea level, standing as a prominent geological feature north of the city of Evanston.
The mountain received its name from Native American tribes who gathered medicinal herbs and roots from its fertile slopes for traditional healing practices.
Multiple radio towers on Medicine Butte's summit serve as communication hubs for local stations, delivering broadcasts throughout Uinta County and neighboring regions.
Access to Medicine Butte requires a four-wheel drive vehicle via Red Willow Road, which connects to US Highway 89 and leads to the summit.
The mountain functions as a signal relay point for television broadcasts from Salt Lake City, extending coverage into remote areas of Wyoming and Idaho.
