Freeman Peak is a 10,273-foot mountain in eastern Idaho's Beaverhead Mountains, part of the Bitterroot Range, rising prominently above Freeman Creek in the Salmon–Challis National Forest northeast of Salmon. Near the Continental Divide and the Idaho–Montana border, its slopes drain toward the Salmon River through Freeman Creek on the north and Kirtley Creek on the south. The peak is named for James Freeman, a Lemhi County pioneer rancher who lived along Freeman Creek, a waterway also called Oro Cache Creek or Gold Cache because of local mining. Its place name was officially adopted in 1969, and the mountain has an alpine subarctic climate with severe winters.
