}}Kinnerly Peak ({{convert|9949|ft|abbr=on}}) is located in the Livingston Range, Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana.[3] It is approximately {{convert|1|mi|km|1}} north of Kintla Peak, the highest peak in the Livingston Range, and {{convert|3|mi|km|1}} south of the Canada–United States border. Both peaks are in the remote northwest corner of the park. Kinnerly Peak is the eighth tallest peak in Glacier National Park.[1]

Kinnerly Peak is notable for its huge north face, which rises steeply from Upper Kintla Lake. From the lake to the summit is an elevation gain of {{convert|5573|ft|m|0}} in approximately a horizontal {{convert|1|mi|km}}.

The first recorded ascent of Kinnerly Peak was made by a Sierra Club party led by the noted mountaineer Norman Clyde, in 1937.[4] The standard climbing route ascends the northwest face, starting from the south shore of Upper Kintla Lake. It involves a large amount of elevation gain, mostly by scrambling, but with some exposed and mildly technical sections (Class 4 or easy Class 5). Other routes exist on the southeast and southwest faces.[5]{{rp|84–89}}
