Kichatna Mountains
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Kichatna Mountains are a small mountain range in the northwestern part of Matanuska-Susitna Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska, approximately 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Mount McKinley.[1] 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, 8400 feet
- Middle Triple Peak, 8835 feet
