The {{convert|14165|ft|0|adj=on}} peak is located in the Lizard Head Wilderness of San Juan National Forest, {{convert|16.9|km|order=flip}} north by east (bearing 8°) of the Town of Rico in Dolores County, Colorado, United States. "El Diente" is Spanish for "The Tooth", a reference to the shape of the peak.[1][2][3] ClimbingThe topographic prominence of El Diente Peak is only {{convert|239|ft|m|0}}, so by a strict {{convert|300|ft|m|adj=on}} cutoff rule it would not be counted as a separate peak from its higher neighbor Mount Wilson. However the 3/4 mile (1.2 km) connecting ridge is a significant climbing challenge (Class 4/5), making El Diente more independent than its prominence would indicate.[4] Hence it is often regarded as a full-fledged fourteener. El Diente is one of the more dramatic peaks in Colorado in terms of local relief and steepness. As a result, it is one of the most challenging climbs among Colorado's fourteeners. All routes involve at least class 3 scrambling on loose talus, and poor route-finding can expose the climber to more difficult and dangerous terrain. Historical names
