Red Mountain

Red Mountain is a 7,662-foot (2,335-metre) summit in the North Cascades of Washington, United States. It is located in Skagit County, within North Cascades National Park and the Stephen Mather Wilderness. It is situated on a smooth ridge of brick-red color at the western culmination of Ragged Ridge. The nearest higher peak is Cosho Peak, 2.6 miles (4.2 km) to the east-southeast. Like many peaks of the North Cascades, Red Mountain is more notable for its large, steep rise above local terrain than for its absolute elevation. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 4,260 feet (1,298 meters) above Fisher Creek in 1.5 miles (2.4 km). Precipitation runoff from Red Mountain drains to the Skagit River via Panther and Fisher Creeks.
