Mount Degenhardt, Mountain summit in North Cascades National Park, United States
Mount Degenhardt reaches an elevation of 8,000 feet with the Terror Glacier spreading across its southeastern slopes near Mount Terror and Inspiration Peak.
The first documented ascent of Mount Degenhardt occurred in 1931 when William Degenhardt and Herbert Strandberg reached the summit through technical climbing routes.
The mountain bears the name of William Degenhardt, an early 20th-century mountaineer who contributed to the exploration of the North Cascades region.
Climbers access the mountain through the Goodell Creek trailhead, navigating dense forests, stream crossings, and snow fields before reaching the technical climbing sections.
The mountain forms part of the Picket Range, where geological processes created deep U-shaped valleys through glacial activity during the Pleistocene period.
