Fang Mountain

Fang Mountain is a 6736 ft summit located in the Alaska Range, in Denali National Park and Preserve, in Alaska, United States. It is situated 15 mi southwest of park headquarters and 14 mi northwest of Cantwell, near the headwaters of the Savage River. This peak's local descriptive name was published in 1952 by the United States Geological Survey. Rarely climbed, Fang Mountain is an unattractive climbing destination because of dangerous, loose, rotten rock and a long approach.
