Mount Anderson, Mountain summit in Olympic National Park, Washington, United States.
Mount Anderson rises to 2,231 meters above sea level, forming a central point between three major watersheds in the Olympic Mountains range.
Lieutenant Joseph O'Neil named the mountain after his commanding officer Thomas M. Anderson, with the first recorded climb occurring in 1920.
The mountain stands as a representation of Pacific Northwest mountaineering tradition, drawing climbers to its slopes throughout the climbing season.
Climbing access to Mount Anderson is optimal from May through August, with routes requiring basic snow and ice climbing techniques.
Three glaciers surround the mountain: Anderson Glacier on the south, Eel Glacier in the northwest, and Hanging Glacier on the eastern ridge.
