Bearhat Mountain, Mountain summit in Glacier National Park, Montana, United States.

Bearhat Mountain rises to 8,689 feet within the Lewis Range, featuring steep rocky terrain, exposed ridges, and commanding views over Hidden Lake and surrounding wilderness areas.

Bearhat Mountain was named after a Kootenai Native American, and the U.S. Board on Geographic Names officially adopted the name in 1932. The sources record no first ascent, so no climber or date is given here. The peak stands in the Lewis Range of Glacier National Park, Montana, immediately west of Hidden Lake.

The mountain's name comes from a Kootenai Native American, adopted by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names in 1932. The Kootenai are the indigenous people associated with the region around Glacier National Park, and the peak's name keeps that link in the official record.

Bearhat Mountain stands just west of Hidden Lake, and the Hidden Lake Overlook trail from Logan Pass gives the closest non-climbing view of its north face. The summit itself is a rock climb on sedimentary rock of the Lewis Overthrust; parties plan a full day and carry protection for exposed terrain. Snow can linger on the upper slopes into summer.

Bearhat Mountain is composed of Precambrian to Jurassic sedimentary rock that formed in shallow seas. About 170 million years ago the Lewis Overthrust pushed a slab roughly 3 miles thick, 50 miles wide and 160 miles long over younger Cretaceous rock.
