Mount Torbert, Mountain summit in Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, United States

Mount Torbert rises to an elevation of 3,479 meters as the highest point of the Tordrillo Mountains, northwest of Anchorage in the Alaska Range.

The United States Geological Survey named this peak in 1930 to honor John B. Torbert, a cartographer who contributed to mapping Alaska until 1929.

The mountain stands as a testament to Alaska's geographic documentation efforts, represented in multiple editions of the Tyonek topographic maps since 1949.

Access to Mount Torbert requires advanced mountaineering skills and proper equipment, with summer months offering the most favorable climbing conditions.

The mountain features the East and West Torbert Cirques, along with three significant glaciers: Barrier Glacier, Crater Glacier, and Harpoon Glacier.
