Teewinot Mountain is the sixth highest peak in the Teton Range, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. The peak is immediately northeast of Grand Teton and the two are separated from one another by the Teton Glacier. Teewinot Mountain stands more than 5,500 feet (1,675 m) immediately west of Jenny Lake. Along with a number of other high peaks in the central Teton Range, Teewinot is considered to be part of what is known as the Cathedral Group, due to the similarity of the peaks to the spires of a cathedral.
