Mount Woodring, Mountain summit in Teton County, United States

Mount Woodring is a 11,595-foot (3,534 m) summit in the Teton Range of Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. It rises immediately west of Leigh Lake, with Paintbrush Canyon to the south and Leigh Canyon to the north. The Paintbrush Canyon Trail, via Paintbrush Divide, gives the easiest access to the top.

Mount Woodring is named for Samuel Woodring, superintendent of Grand Teton National Park from 1929 to 1934. He was removed by NPS co-founder Horace M. Albright in 1934 after allegations of fondling a babysitter. Retired professor Bob Righter, a Moose resident, uncovered the allegations in the late 1970s and in 2017 called for the mountain's name to be changed. In April 2025 the Wyoming Board of Geographic Names proposed renaming it Mount Equality to the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, which had not ruled as of August 2025.

The name honours Samuel Woodring, superintendent of Grand Teton National Park from 1929 to 1934; he was removed by Horace M. Albright in 1934 over allegations of fondling a babysitter. Retired professor Bob Righter, a Moose resident, found the records in the late 1970s and in 2017 called for a new name.

The route to the peak starts at String Lake trailhead and requires solid navigation skills as you travel through areas with loose stones and undefined paths. Visitors should come prepared for unmarked sections and be comfortable with mountain scrambling.
