The Kichatna Mountains are a small mountain range in the northwestern part of Matanuska-Susitna Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska, approximately 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Denali. Unlike the major snow peaks of much of the rest of the Alaska Range, the Kichatnas boast short, steep rock towers, which are famous both for their high-quality, highly technical climbing, and their terrible weather.
The main peaks of the Kichatnas include:
Kichatna Spire, 8985 feet
Augustin Peak
Gurney Peak, 8400 feet
Middle Triple Peak, 8835 feet
The Citadel, 8520 feet
Named glaciers in the Kichatnas include
Caldwell Glacier
Cul-de-sac Glacier
Fleischmann Glacier
Shadows Glacier
Shelf Glacier
Tatina Glacier
Most of the glaciers originate from the Cathedral Spires arrête.
