Vulture Peak, Mountain summit in Glacier National Park, Montana, US.
Vulture Peak rises to an elevation of 9,642 feet within the Livingston Range, featuring both the Vulture Glacier and Two Ocean Glacier on its slopes.
The peak stands as the thirteenth highest summit in Glacier National Park, making it a significant geographical reference point for mountaineers since the park's establishment.
Mountaineers and hiking communities regard this peak as a technical climbing destination, requiring extensive preparation and navigational skills through unmarked terrain.
Reaching the summit involves multiple days of off-trail hiking through Gyrfalcon basin, accessed via West Flattop and requiring undesignated backcountry permits.
The mountain maintains a true isolation distance of 4.33 miles and contains two distinct glaciers, creating a rare geological formation in the Montana Rockies.
