Mount Saint John, Mountain summit in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, US
Mount Saint John rises to an elevation of 11,434 feet with a prominence of 1,357 feet above the northwest shore of Jenny Lake.
The first recorded climb of Mount Saint John occurred in 1929 when mountaineers Fryxell and Smith successfully reached the mountain's peak.
The mountain received its name from Orestes St. John, a geologist who conducted important survey work in the Teton Range region.
Climbers need to register at Jenny Lake Ranger Station before attempting the ascent, which is best undertaken between July and September.
The Lake of the Crags, a cirque lake, sits immediately south of the summit and can be accessed through the unmarked paths of Hanging Canyon.
