Monte Cristo Peak is a mountain peak in the Henry M. Jackson Wilderness in Washington state. Together with Columbia Peak and Kyes Peak it forms a basin that contains Columbia Glacier and Blanca Lake.[4] The 1918 edition of The Mountaineer called the mountain "a huge pile of red rock."[3]
Monte Cristo is named for the mining boom town of Monte Cristo,[3] which dates from the late 19th and early 20th centuries and which is situated on the mountain's northwestern flank. The town was owned by J. D. Rockefeller for a few years. A railroad and cable tramway was built to move materials.
