Snowshoe Peak, Mountain summit in Cabinet Mountains, Montana, US
Snowshoe Peak rises to 2,663 meters, marking the highest point in the Cabinet Mountains with steep limestone cliffs and exposed ridges along its slopes.
The mountain received official recognition as an Ultra peak due to its 1,651-meter prominence, joining an elite group of 57 such peaks in the contiguous United States.
The peak serves as a training ground for technical mountaineers, requiring skills in route finding, rock climbing, and glacier travel across complex alpine terrain.
Climbers access the mountain via the Northeast Ridge from Leigh Lake, requiring ice axes, crampons, and rock protection gear for the class 4 technical sections.
The northern face contains Blackwell Glacier, the last remaining named glacier in the Cabinet Mountains, providing evidence of historical glacial activity in Montana.
