Wilkins Peak, Mountain summit in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, US
Wilkins Peak rises to 2332 meters in elevation between the cities of Green River and Rock Springs, featuring multiple radio and television transmission towers.
The peak forms part of the Green River Formation, which developed during the Eocene epoch and contains substantial oil shale and trona deposits.
The mountain supports local communication infrastructure, hosting FM radio stations KYCS, KFRZ, and KTME, along with television translators serving the regional population.
The Wilkins Peak Trail System extends over 24 miles of single track paths, with trail maps available at the Green River Chamber of Commerce.
In 2003, a propane delivery vehicle accidentally knocked down a Wyoming Public Radio tower on the peak, disrupting National Public Radio programming.
