Bitterroot Peaks: Nez Perce Pass to Lost Trail Pass

There are 20 ID/MT “border peaks” that sit directly on the Bitterroot Crest between Nez Perce Pass and Lost Trail Pass. This stretch of mountains runs south, east, northeast and southeast in making its way to Lost Trail Pass. Only seven of the 20 peaks have official names. The book includes two of these “border peaks” on Page 89. The peaks are listed from north to south. Peaks are either linked to this website or LOJ if I do not have a page for the peak. This list does not include Bitterroot peaks that are not located directly on the Bitterroot Crest.

The peaks in the list are formatted as follows: name, elevation/prominence rise
