One of our stops on a tour of Yellowstone National Park was at a large meadow. One of the views from the meadow was of Electric Peak.

According to summitpost.org:

Electric Peak is the most prominent peak in the northwest corner of Yellowstone National Park. With its dominating appearance over the surrounding area, the peak is often mistakenly believed to be the highest point in Yellowstone, but it is actually the 8th highest summit in the park. With an elevation of 10,969 feet it is the highest point in the Gallatin Range. Although much of the mountain and its common approach route lie in the state of Wyoming, the actual summit lies just over the border in the state of Montana.

Electric Peak is a popular peak for hikers.
