The Owl Creek Mountains in Wyoming are shown highlighted on a map of the western United States
The 'Owl Creek Mountains' (highest point, 9,665 ft/2,946 m) are a subrange of the
Rocky Mountains in central
Wyoming in the
United States, running E-W to form a bridge between the
Absaroka Range to the northwest and the
Bridger Mountains to the east. The range forms the boundary between the
Bighorn Basin to the north and the
Shoshone Basin to the south. The
Wind River passes through the gap between the range and the Bridger Mountains to the east, and becomes the
Bighorn River on the north side of the mountains. The range is entirely within the
Wind River Indian Reservation.
