Johannesburg Mountain is one of the most famous peaks in the North Cascades of Washington state. Though not one of the top 100 peaks in the state by elevation, nor one of the top peaks as ranked by topographic prominence, Johannesburg is notable for its large, steep local relief, and particularly its immense, dramatic Northeast Face, which drops 5,000 feet (1,525 m) in only 0.9 miles (1.4 km). The name "Johannesburg Mountain" comes, through an error, from "Johnsberg," the name of three mining claims on the north face of the peak. It has also been called "Elsbeth."

  • Der Johannesburg Mountain ist einer der berühmtesten Berge in den North Cascades im US-Bundesstaat Washington. Obwohl er weder unter den hundert höchsten Bergen des Staates rangiert noch einer der prominentesten Gipfel ist, ist er doch für sein ausgeprägt steiles Relief, insbesondere an der dramatischen Nordostflanke, bekannt, welche über nur 0,9 mi (1,4 km) um 1.525 m aufragt. Der Name „Johannesburg Mountain“ entstammt einer Verwechslung mit „Johnsberg“, dem Namen dreier Bergbau-Claims an der Nordflanke des Berges. Gelegentlich wurde er auch „Elsbeth“ genannt. (de)

  • Der Johannesburg Mountain ist einer der berühmtesten Berge in den North Cascades im US-Bundesstaat Washington. Obwohl er weder unter den hundert höchsten Bergen des Staates rangiert noch einer der prominentesten Gipfel ist, ist er doch für sein ausgeprägt steiles Relief, insbesondere an der dramatischen Nordostflanke, bekannt, welche über nur 0,9 mi (1,4 km) um 1.525 m aufragt. Der Name „Johannesburg Mountain“ entstammt einer Verwechslung mit „Johnsberg“, dem Namen dreier Bergbau-Claims an der Nordflanke des Berges. Gelegentlich wurde er auch „Elsbeth“ genannt. Der Johannesburg Mountain wurde erstmals am 26. Juli 1938 von Calder Bressler, Bill Cox, Ray W. Clough und Tom Myers bestiegen; sie nutzen eine Variante der heute beliebtesten Route, der East Ridge/Cascade-Johannesburg Couloir Route. Diese und weitere Routen, die an der Südseite des Berges enden, sind größtenteils Kletter-Routen. Es gibt aber viele weitere Routen auf der Nord- und der Nordostseite, die technisch hoch anspruchsvoll sind und die Bergsteiger Gefahren durch herabstürzende Steine und Eis aussetzen. (de)

Clough, and Tom Myers, via a version of the most popular route today, the East Ridge/Cascade-Johannesburg Couloir Route. This route, and others which also finish on the south side of the mountain, are mostly scrambling routes. However, there are many routes on the north and northeast faces which are highly technical and involve considerable objective danger from falling rock and ice. (en)
