Upper Wolfjaw Mountain, Mountain summit in Lake Placid, Adirondacks, United States.
Upper Wolfjaw Mountain reaches an elevation of 4,185 feet, making it the 29th highest peak among the Adirondack Mountains High Peaks collection.
Alexander Wyant, a painter, named the mountain after observing that the deep space between peaks resembled the shape of a wolf's jaw.
The mountain forms part of the Adirondack 46ers program, where hikers aim to climb all major peaks in the Adirondack range above 4,000 feet.
Hikers need a parking reservation from May through October to access the trails through the Adirondack Mountain Reserve conservation area.
The trail system connects to multiple peaks, allowing hikers to complete several summits in one journey through the Great Range trail network.
