It rises to an elevation of {{convert|13171|ft|m|0}}[1] and provides onlookers with dramatic views and vistas. The mountain can be climbed most easily from the western side, accessed by either the Battle Park or West Tensleep trail-heads and is roughly 24 miles round-trip from both. The peak is located in the 189,000 acre (765 km²) Cloud Peak Wilderness within Bighorn National Forest. The northeast slope of Cloud Peak is a deep cirque which harbors Cloud Peak Glacier, the last active glacier in the Bighorn Mountains. Cloud Peak is on the border between Johnson County and Big Horn County in Wyoming and is the high point of both counties.[2] As the high point of an isolated range, Cloud Peak has the greatest topographic prominence in the state, {{convert|7077|ft}}, one foot more than the state's hightest mountain, {{convert|13810|foot}} Gannett Peak,[3] and fifteenth greatest in the contiguous United States.[4] See also
