Double Peak (Alaska)

Double Peak is a prominent 6,818 foot (2,078 meter) mountain summit located in Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, in the Chigmit Mountains of the Aleutian Range, in the US state of Alaska.Although modest in elevation, relief is significant since the mountain rises up from tidewater at Cook Inlet in about 20 miles, and it ranks 71st in prominence for all peaks in Alaska.[4] Published in 1912 by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, the mountain takes its name from the Double Glacier which the peak overlooks.[6] The months May through June offer the most favorable weather for viewing or climbing the peak.Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into Cook Inlet via Big River.
