Climbing and access information for this peak is on Page 118 of the book.


Lake Mountain is located on the western edge of the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, north of Landmark. The peak towers over Pistol Lake. I climbed this peak in 2002. Despite its relatively short access, other than hunters, few people venture into this area of the Salmon River Mountains [(C)(1.4)(a) or (1.3.2)(a) on Page 140]. While not alpine terrain, it is scenic and wild country. USGS Pistol Lake
