Dry Ridge is another major ridgeline of the Peale Mountains. It is located east of Georgetown, Idaho.  It is bounded on the west by Dry Valley and Schmid Ridge and on the east by Freeman Ridge. There are 9 ranked summits crowning the ridge. Hawks Peak (9,979 feet) is the highest point on the ridge. Dry Ridge (8,975 feet) is the highest point on the ridges’ north end.
