Mount Sabine

Mount Sabine is a 10,405-foot peak in southeastern Alaska's Fairweather Range within Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, just south of Mount Fairweather. Its steep, heavily glaciated terrain gives it dramatic local relief, with the summit rising 6,400 feet above the Desolation Glacier in less than 1.5 miles. Fairweather Glacier borders its north side, while the south slope connects to Desolation Glacier. The mountain lies in a marine subpolar climate influenced by moisture from the Gulf of Alaska, bringing heavy rain and snow, long cold winters, and cool summers. Although widely used on maps and in climbing, the name remains unofficial under U.S. geographic naming policy for designated wilderness areas.
