Mount Ernest Gruening-South Peak

Mount Ernest Gruening is a 6,015+ ft (1,830+ m) glaciated mountain summit located in the Boundary Ranges of the Coast Mountains, in the U.S. state of Alaska. The long ridge-like mountain is situated between the Herbert Glacier and Eagle Glacier at the west edge of the Juneau Icefield, 20 mi (32 km) northwest of Juneau, Alaska, and 8 mi (13 km) east of Favorite Channel, on land managed by Tongass National Forest. Although modest in elevation, relief is significant since the east face of the mountain rises over 3,500 feet above the Herbert Glacier in less than one mile, and the west aspect rises 5,800 feet above the Eagle River valley in two miles.
