Idaho 11ers

This is a list of the 114 ranked 11,000 foot peaks in Idaho. You may have heard of a few of these, but the majority are pretty obscure and seldom climbed. The peaks are sprinkled across seven different mountain ranges. None of them have any maintained trails to the top, most are a good challenging scramble, and a couple require technical climbing skills. All are rewarding climbs in their own way, and several are all around Idaho classics.

Over the past several years, a handful of elite climbers have managed to achieve the impressive feat of reaching the summits of all 114 Idaho 11ers. Incredible amounts of  skill, dedication, and persistence are required in order to be included on the exclusive list below.

UPDATE: With the emergence of new LIDAR measurement data, there are now 115 ranked 11ers in Idaho. In 2023, 3 new peaks were added to the list, but 2 were removed.

No one had ever climbed each and every one of the 11,000 foot tall mountains in Idaho until September 21, 2012 when my friends John Roache and George Reinier became the first to complete this amazing list of peaks. It took a ton of commitment and grit to accomplish this over a six year period. I’m proud to have climbed a handful of the mountains with these two Idaho peak bagging pioneers over the past several years. They were good enough to share the information below. Make sure to check out some of their great trip reports and fantastic photos.
