Fishfin Ridge is a Шаблон:Convert mountain ridge located in Lemhi County, Idaho, United States.
Description
Fishfin Ridge is part of the Bighorn Crags in the Salmon River Mountains which are a subset of the Rocky Mountains.[1] The remote ridge is situated 30 miles west of Salmon, Idaho, in the Frank Church–River of No Return Wilderness. An approach is possible from July through October via a multi-day backpacking trip along trails.[2] Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains to the Salmon River via Clear Creek (north slope) and Wilson Creek (south slope). Topographic relief is modest as the summit rises Шаблон:Convert above Clear Creek in approximately one mile. This landform's toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names,[3] and the highest point is unofficially known as "Knuckle Peak."[4] The first ascent of Knuckle Peak was made by Lincoln Hales and Pete Schoening in 1955.[4] Fishfin Ridge was named in 1962 by Dr. Paul Dilke of University of Idaho because it looks like a dorsal fin of a prehistoric fish.[5]
Climate
Based on the Köppen climate classification, Fishfin Ridge is located in an alpine subarctic climate zone with long, cold, snowy winters, and cool to warm summers.[6] Winter temperatures can drop below −10 °F with wind chill factors below −30 °F.
