Kichatna Mountains
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kichatna Mountains are a small but extremely rugged subrange of the western Alaska Range, approximately 65 miles (108 km) southwest of Mount McKinley. Unlike the major snow peaks of much of the rest of the Alaska Range, the Kichatnas boast short, steep rock towers, which are famous both for their high-quality, highly technical climbing, and their terrible weather.
The main peaks of the Kichatnas include:
- Kichatna Spire, 8985 feet
- Mount Augustin
- Gurney Peak
- Middle Triple Peak
