The Thunderer, Mountain summit in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, US.
The Thunderer rises to an elevation of 10,558 feet within the Absaroka Range, featuring a northeastern ridge visible from Soda Butte Creek canyon.
Members of the Arnold Hague Geological Survey named this mountain in 1885 after observing its frequent encounters with thunderstorms during their expeditions.
The mountain serves as a research location for geologists studying volcanic formations and tectonic activity within the Yellowstone region's diverse landscape.
Visitors can access the northern ridge through the 7.4-mile Thunderer Cutoff Trail, beginning at the trailhead opposite Pebble Creek Campground.
The mountain's prominence of 1,714 feet makes it stand out against the surrounding terrain, with clouds frequently enveloping its summit.
