About Horn Mountains

The Horn Mountains are a rugged and remote mountain range located in the northeastern corner of Alaska. Characterized by steep, glaciated peaks and deep valleys, the Horn Mountains are a part of the Brooks Range, one of the northernmost mountain chains in North America. The terrain is challenging, with numerous technical climbing routes and difficult hiking trails that traverse the range. The region experiences a true arctic climate, with long, cold winters and short, cool summers.
