Mount Fricaba is a 7,139-foot double-summit peak in Washington’s Olympic Mountains, on the boundary of Olympic National Park and the Buckhorn Wilderness. It is the highest point in both the wilderness and Olympic National Forest, near Hal Foss Peak. Positioned on a drainage divide in the northeastern Olympics, its runoff flows east to the Dungeness River headwaters and west into Deception Creek, a tributary of the Dosewallips River. The mountain lies in a marine west coast climate with heavy winter precipitation and clearer summer weather. Officially named in 1961, it had been used earlier by climbers, and its first recorded ascent came in 1957. Its rugged terrain reflects oceanic crust, sedimentary rock, glaciation, and erosion.
