Mount Natazhat is a high peak of theSaint Elias Mountains, ofAlaska,United States, just west of the border with theYukon Territory ofCanada. It lies on the northern edge of the range, south of the White River and north of theKlutlan Glacier.Mount Natazhat is a little-noticed peak; however it is a very large peak in terms of rise above local terrain. It rises 9,000 feet (2,743 m) in less than 7 miles (11.3 km) above the lowlands to the north, and 7,500 feet (2,286 m) in about 4 miles (6.4 km) above the Klutlan Glacier to the south.

The current standard route is that of the second ascent along the northeast ridge. This route was first climbed in 1996 by D. Hart, P. Barry, H. Hunt, and D. Lucey. It is moderately serious by Alaskan standards (Alaska Grade 3+), with some steep ice and corniced ridges.^[3]

Mount Natazhat is not often climbed due to its remote location and the fact that it is not a particularly high peak, especially by Alaskan standards. (Also, it is not even afourteener.) In fact, the only mention of the peak in the complete Index of theAmerican Alpine Journal is for the 1996 ascent noted above.^[4]
