Mt. Barrille is the northernmost peak on the west side of the Ruth Gorge. It's about 2,750' tall from the glacier and hosts and number of routes, most of which are on the impressively steep east side. The most popular and easiest route to the summit is the Japanese Couloir but beware of poor snow conditions if the temperatures have been warm. The Cobra Pillar is becoming a popular rock climbing objective thanks to the release of the new Alaska Supertopo guide, but don't expect this route to go down easy. The success rate on this route is still very low and most parties will take several days to climb it unless they are very strong. The name is the subject of some confusion: the USGS spells it Mount Barrille even though it is named after Edward Barrill.
