Jarbidge Peak stands at 10,799 feet and is the second highest mountain in the Jarbidge Mountain Range after the Matterhorn. This rocky, open summit provides excellent panoramic views of the surrounding area, but especially across the dry, exposed ridge toward the Matterhorn and the other lesser summits that comprise the Jarbidge Mountains. This summit is an excellent goal in and of itself, but is also a great place to rest, sip some water, eat some food, and sign the summit register before continuing onward to the surrounding peaks across the ridge line if attempting the Jarbidge Traverse. Please be aware that the Jarbidge Traverse is a serious endeavor. You are above tree line for the entire ridge line traveling on exposed terrain on trails that might be faint to non-existent at times. Please use good judgement about your own ability and comfort-levels before attempting Jarbidge Peak and the others along the traverse.
