Koip Peak, Mountain summit in Ansel Adams Wilderness, Mono County, US.
Koip Peak rises to an elevation of 12,968 feet with its rocky slopes standing near the eastern border of Yosemite National Park.
The first recorded ascent of Koip Peak occurred in 1919 by Walker Huber, marking the beginning of documented mountaineering activities on this summit.
The name Koip originates from Western Numic language, referencing the mountain sheep that inhabit the surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains.
Climbers access the summit through Koip Peak Trail from Dana Meadows, which leads to Koip Peak Pass at an elevation of 12,260 feet.
The north-facing glacier between Koip Peak and Kuna Peak creates a technical climbing route through metamorphic rock formations.
