Mount Kiev is a 7775feet mountain summit located in Alaska, United States.
Mount Kiev is the highest point in the Endicott Mountains which are a subrange of the Brooks Range.[1] It is set 5miles west of the Dalton Highway on the northeast boundary of Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains east into tributaries of the Atigun River and west into tributaries of the Itikmalac River which in turn flows into the Itkillik River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises approximately 4775abbr=offNaNabbr=off above the Atigun Valley in 4miles and 4275abbr=offNaNabbr=off above the Itikmalac Valley in 3miles. Galbraith Lake is 8miles to the north-northeast, whereas the Continental Divide and Atigun Pass are 15miles to the south. The nearest community is Prudhoe Bay, 250miles to the north. The mountain's toponym has not been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.
According to the Köppen climate classification system, Mount Kiev is located in a subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and cool summers.[4] Winter temperatures can drop below −20 °F with wind chill factors below −30 °F. This climate supports a small unnamed glacier on the peak's north slopes.
