Mount Heyburn, at 10,229 feet (3,118 m) is one of the many 10,000-foot (3,050 m) peaks in the Sawtooth Range of central Idaho.

The town of Stanley is located eight miles (13 km) north-northeast of Mount Heyburn.

Grand Mogul, 9,733 ft (2,967 m), and Mount Heyburn are the two signature peaks that frame the southwest end of Redfish Lake (6,547 ft (1,996 m)); all are in the Salmon River watershed.

While there are no trails to the top of Mount Heyburn, there are trails around both sides of Redfish Lake, and a boat service that ferries hikers the five miles (8 km) from Redfish Lake Lodge on the north end of the lake to the south end at regular intervals, for a round trip fee of $22.

The drop-off point at the south end is a campground at the base of Mount Heyburn.
