Sheep Mountain, Mountain summit in Gallatin Range, Montana, United States.
Standing at 10,097 feet in elevation, Sheep Mountain features steep slopes that drain into both the Yellowstone River and Specimen Creek systems.
The mountain served as a triangulation station in 1913 when surveyor T.M. Bannon conducted geographical measurements of the surrounding region.
The summit register, contained in a glass jar, holds signatures from mountaineers and explorers dating back through multiple decades since 1960.
Access to Sheep Mountain requires following the Sky Rim Trail and Gallatin Skyline Trail through challenging terrain suitable for experienced hikers.
The mountain's north face contains sections of the Gallatin Petrified Forest, preserving tree fossils from the Eocene Epoch geological period.
