Girls Mountain
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Girls Mountain is a 6,134-foot (1,870 m) glaciated mountain summit located in the Chugach Mountains, in the U.S. state of Alaska. The peak is situated 18 mi (29 km) east of Valdez, 4 mi (6 km) north-northwest of Thompson Pass, and 2 mi (3 km) west of the Richardson Highway. Precipitation runoff from the mountain and meltwater from its glaciers drains into tributaries of the Tsina River, which in turn is part of the Copper River drainage basin.
