Mount Mathias, Mountain summit in Olympic National Park, Jefferson County, United States.

Mount Mathias rises to 2178 meters between the Blue Glacier on its western slope and the Hoh Glacier on its eastern side.

The mountain, initially named Apollo, received its current name in 1960 to honor Francis Wayland Mathias, a mountaineer from Grays Harbor County.

The Olympic Mountains region contains geological formations of Eocene sandstone and basaltic materials, shaped through centuries of natural processes.

Climbers can reach the summit through the West Face route, which requires class 4 climbing skills and appropriate mountaineering equipment.

The mountain experiences a marine west coast climate, where Pacific Ocean fronts create substantial precipitation patterns throughout the year.
