Mount Kimball is a relatively difficult climb for a peak with low absolute elevation, due to difficult ridge terrain, and it rebuffed eight climbing attempts by experienced Alaskan mountaineers before its first ascent in 1969.[3] Due to its remoteness, difficulty, and low stature compared to other major Alaskan summits, the peak is not often climbed. __TOC__{{clear}} See also{{portal|North America|United States|Alaska|Mountains}}
