Sacagawea Peak is the highest mountain in the Bridger Range in south-western Montana.[3] The peak is named for Sacagawea, a Lemhi Shoshone woman that accompanied the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
The mountain is a popular hiking destination. The main trailhead starts at 7,788 feet and climbs 1,800 feet reaching the summit in 2 miles.[4] The mountain holds snow in chutes through the early summer and local skiers often ski there through August.
