About Sunlight Peak
Sunlight Peak rises to 14,061 feet (4,286 m) as the most technical of the Chicago Basin trio. The summit block requires exposed Class 4 climbing on solid rock. This beautiful spire attracts experienced climbers seeking a true alpine climbing experience in the remote Needle Mountains.
History
Part of the remote Chicago Basin group, Sunlight Peak offers one of the more technical standard routes among the 14ers. The final summit block has turned back many climbers but provides an exhilarating finish for those comfortable with exposure.
