Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox mountain

Bullard Mountain is a Шаблон:Convert mountain summit located in the Boundary Ranges, in the U.S. state of Alaska.[1] The peak is situated immediately east of the terminus of Mendenhall Glacier, within Tongass National Forest, Шаблон:Convert north-northwest of Juneau, and Шаблон:Convert northeast of Juneau International Airport. McGinnis Mountain lies Шаблон:Convert on the opposite side of the glacier, and Heintzleman Ridge lies Шаблон:Convert to the south. Bullard Mountain is often seen and photographed with Mount Wrather, a Шаблон:Convert summit Шаблон:Convert to the north because they are together in the background behind Mendenhall Lake, a popular tourist and recreation area. Although modest in elevation, relief is significant since the mountain rises from this nearly sea-level lake in less than two miles. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into the lake via Nugget Creek and Nugget Falls. Bullard Mountain is named for Benjamin Bullard (1848-1933), a mining engineer who, in 1907, began mining on Nugget Creek where he later built a hydroelectric power plant.[2]

Climate

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Bullard Mountain is located in a subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers.[3] Temperatures can drop below −20 °C with wind chill factors below −30 °C. This climate supports the Mendenhall Glacier to the mountain's west. The month of July offers the most favorable weather for viewing and climbing this peak.
