Mount Jackson

Mount Jackson is a summit in the Gallatin Range reaching 2509 meters (8232 feet) within the Rocky Mountains. The peak features steep slopes and natural rock formations throughout its terrain.

The peak was documented during early explorations of the Gallatin Range and contributed to mapping efforts of the American West. These surveying activities helped establish scientific understanding of this mountain region.

Mount Jackson serves as a reference point for local mountaineering groups who organize regular climbing expeditions during favorable weather conditions.

Visitors need climbing equipment and should check weather forecasts since conditions can change rapidly at high elevations. The ascent and descent require good weather and experience navigating alpine terrain.

From the summit, visitors can see the silhouettes of Purple Mountain, National Park Mountain, and Mount Haynes on the horizon. These panoramic views of neighboring peaks make the spot particularly rewarding for photography.
