Easley Peak is an Шаблон:Convert mountain summit located on the common border that Blaine County shares with Custer County, in Idaho, United States.

Description

Easley Peak ranks as the 100th-highest peak in Idaho and is situated on the crest of the Boulder Mountains which are a subset of the Rocky Mountains.[1] The mountain is set 18 miles northwest of Ketchum, Idaho, in the Hemingway–Boulders Wilderness on land managed by Sawtooth National Forest.[2] The peak can be seen from Highway 75 and Galena Summit. Precipitation runoff from the mountain's slopes drains south to the Big Wood River and north into headwaters of the South Fork of East Fork Salmon River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises Шаблон:Convert above Big Wood River in three miles. Neighbors include line parent Cerro Ciento one mile to the north and Boulder Peak four miles to the east-southeast. This landform's toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.[3] John V. Easley was a pioneer who moved to this area around 1880 and opened a stage station at nearby Easley Hot Springs.[4]
