Mount Salisbury, Mountain summit in Hoonah-Angoon Census Area, Alaska.

Mount Salisbury rises to an elevation of 3,709 meters, featuring steep slopes that feed into the northern branches of Johns Hopkins Glacier.

The United States Board on Geographic Names officially adopted the mountain's name in 1937 to honor geologist Rollin D. Salisbury from the University of Chicago.

The mountain area connects to the traditional lands of Alaska Native communities who maintain connections to these mountainous territories through generations.

Access to Mount Salisbury requires careful preparation due to severe weather conditions and its remote location near the higher Mount Fairweather.

The southwest face of Mount Salisbury descends over 3,048 meters to Johns Hopkins Glacier within a distance of only eight kilometers.

Location: Alaska

Elevation above the sea: 3,709 m
