Lemah Mountain, Mountain summit in Alpine Lakes Wilderness, Washington, United States.
Lemah Mountain rises to 7,519 feet with five distinct peaks resembling fingers, offering views of Mount Rainier and Mount Stuart.
Wallace Burr and his climbing group completed the first documented ascent of the main peak in 1923, marking a milestone in regional mountaineering.
The mountain's name originates from Chinook Jargon, derived from French 'le main', reflecting the five-fingered appearance of its summits.
Climbers access the mountain through Cooper River Trail from Pete Lake trailhead, covering 16 miles round trip with 4,700 feet elevation gain.
The mountain contains three sections of glaciers on its eastern slope, feeding Lemah Creek and Burnt Boot Creek tributaries.
