The Absarokas are noted for their dark and craggy appearance, lush and heavily forested valleys and abundant wildlife.  The highest peak in the range, located in Wyoming, is Francs Peak at 13,153 ft .  The Beartooths are more alpine with huge treeless plateaus and the highest peak in the state of Montana (Granite Peak 12,799 ft ).  The wilderness contains 30 peaks over 12,000 ft .  The wilderness is an integral part of the 20 e6acre Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and borders Yellowstone National Park.
