Mount Breitenbach, Rocky summit in Lost River Range, Idaho, USA.
Mount Breitenbach rises to 12,140 feet elevation, standing as the fifth-highest peak in Idaho and fourth-highest mountain in the Lost River Range.
The mountain received its name in memory of Jake Breitenbach, who died during the American Mount Everest Expedition of 1963.
The mountain serves as a destination for mountaineers who follow established climbing routes through Pete Creek, northwest of Mackay, Idaho.
Climbers can access the mountain without permits from mid-June through mid-September, with earlier attempts providing better trail conditions due to snow coverage.
The southwestern slopes elevate 6,200 vertical feet above the Big Lost River Valley, while the north face rises 3,000 feet over East Fork Pasimeroi River.
