Hyndman Peak, Mountain summit in Pioneer Mountains, Idaho, US
Hyndman Peak rises to an elevation of 12,009 feet with a pyramid shape at the head of Hyndman Basin, surrounded by peaks over 11,000 feet.
The first recorded ascent of the mountain occurred in 1889 when W. T. Griswold and E. T. Perkins reached the summit through the eastern route.
Local mining industry leader Major William Hyndman left his legacy as the mountain's namesake, reflecting the region's connection to early settlement activities.
The primary route spans six miles from the trailhead along Hyndman Creek, following an unmaintained trail that ascends the Hyndman-Old Hyndman saddle.
The peak maintains a prominence of 4,809 feet and receives 35.62 inches of annual precipitation, creating varying conditions throughout the climbing seasons.
