Rendezvous Mountain is a large mountain massif located in the southern Teton Range. The west and northern flanks of the mountain are in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, while much of the remainder of the massif is in Bridger-Teton National Forest. [cite web | url =http://www.topoquest.com/map.asp?lat=43.5972&lon=-110.87057&size=l&u=4&datum=nad27&layer=DRG| title = USGS Teton Village (WY) Topo Map| format = Map| work = | publisher = TopoQuest | accessdate = 2008-06-29] [cite web | url = http://www.peakbagger.com/peak.aspx?pid=5234 | title = Rendezvous Mountain-North Peak, Wyoming | format = | work = | publisher = Peakbagger | accessdate = 2007-02-09] The mountain massif extends for a distance of 5 miles (8 km) between Granite Canyon to the north and Phillips Canyon to the south. Though there are numerous summits above 10,000 feet (3,048 m), the one that is most commonly visited is the North Peak, where the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort aerial tram provides access to the summit for skiers in the winter and sightseerings and hikers in the summer. The descent from the summit of Rendezvous Peak back to Teton Village is steep, with an altitude loss of 4,135 feet (1,260 m) in only a little more than 6 miles (9.6 km).
