Edwards Mountain, Mountain summit in Glacier National Park, Montana.
Edwards Mountain is a peak in Glacier National Park with a summit at about 9,072 feet and multiple climbing routes. The West Ridge and East Face paths lead climbers through rocky terrain to the top.
The mountain sits within Glacier National Park, established in 1910 as the tenth national park in the country. The area has long been used by climbers and hikers exploring the high country.
Local mountaineering groups maintain detailed route logs and climbing records, contributing to the mountain's documentation for future generations.
The best time to climb is between June and October when snow and ice are minimal. Access is via the Sperry Glacier Trail starting near Lake McDonald Lodge.
While climbing, you can observe Sperry Glacier, a large glacier visible from different elevations as you gain height. This natural display makes the ascent special with changing perspectives at each stage.
