About Mount Eolus
Mount Eolus stands at 14,087 feet (4,294 m) as the highest peak in the Needle Mountains. The peak requires a combination of railroad access, backpacking, and technical scrambling. The final summit pitch includes the Catwalk, an exposed Class 3 traverse that tests climbers' nerve.
History
Named for Aeolus, the Greek god of wind, the peak lives up to its name with often fierce summit winds. The combination of railroad access and technical climbing makes it a unique and memorable 14er experience.
