Lincoln Peak

Lincoln Peak is a summit in Washington rising to 9,101 feet as part of the Mount Baker massif. Its structure features steep slopes and exposed rock faces covered with snow and ice throughout much of the year.

Fred Beckey completed the first recorded ascent in 1956, marking the beginning of documented mountaineering on this peak. Since then the mountain has become a recognized destination for those pursuing technically difficult routes.

Lincoln Peak draws experienced climbers seeking technical challenges on its southwest face. The route requires advanced mountaineering skills and thorough preparation.

Ascending requires specialized equipment such as ropes, ice tools, and crampons for safe movement. Spring conditions typically provide more stable climbing opportunities compared to other seasons.

The terrain contains several drainage systems flowing into the Nooksack River system. This network ultimately connects the mountain to the Strait of Georgia and Pacific Ocean.
