Mount Deborah, mountain summit in the Alaska Range, Alaska, United States

Mount Deborah is a 3,761-metre peak in the eastern Alaska Range, 88 km east-northeast of Cantwell. Its Northeast Face rises about 2,100 metres over roughly 2.4 km. The Southeast Face drains into the West Fork Glacier, the West Face into the Yanert Glacier, and the Northeast Face into the Gillam Glacier. A ridge runs east to Hess Mountain, 4.5 km away.

The peak was named in 1907 by James Wickersham in honor of his first wife Deborah Susan Bell Wickersham. This naming occurred during early exploration efforts in the Alaska Range.

David Roberts documented his 1964 climbing attempt in his book 'Deborah: A Wilderness Narrative', contributing to mountaineering literature.

Access to this summit requires technical climbing skills and ice climbing experience to navigate challenging terrain. Visitors should expect severe weather conditions, steep icy slopes, and long approach distances.

The Northeast Face of Mount Deborah rises about 7,000 feet over roughly 1.5 miles, one of the steepest sustained walls in the Alaska Range. The mountain's difficult access and harsh weather long deterred climbers; the first ascent only came in 1954.
