Description
WikipediaTraverse Peak (11,056 feet (3,370 m)) is in the northern Teton Range, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. The mountain rises abruptly above Moran Canyon to the south and the south fork of Snowshoe Canyon to the north. From Moran Bay on Jackson Lake, the south slopes of the mountain can be seen behind Bivouac Peak rising above Moran Canyon. In 1934 Irene Ayres and her brother made the first recorded ascent of the peak. They chose the name.
