Buckner Mountain, Mountain summit in North Cascades National Park, Washington, US
Buckner Mountain rises to 9,114 feet with two distinct summits located on opposite sides of a ridgeline in the North Cascades range.
The mountain received its name from Henry Freeland Buckner, who managed mining operations in the Horseshoe Basin area during the early 1900s.
Local mountaineers continue measuring the exact heights of both summits, contributing detailed data to regional geographic knowledge and climbing documentation.
Climbers access the mountain through Cascade River Road to Cascade Pass Trailhead, requiring permits from the Wilderness Information Center in Marblemount.
The peak contains the Boston Glacier on its northern face, offering technical ice climbing opportunities throughout the designated climbing season.
