Sunrise Peak is a prominent 5,892 ft (1,800 m) volcanic mountain summit located in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, in Skamania County of Washington state.[3] It is situated in the Cascade Range, 15.7 mi (25.3 km) northwest of Mount Adams, 21 mi (34 km) northeast of Mount St. Helens, and 36 mi (58 km) south of Mount Rainier. Its nearest higher neighbor is Burnt Rock, 12.2 mi (19.6 km) to the southeast, and Jumbo Peak lies 1.7 mi (2.7 km) to the south-southwest.[1] Precipitation runoff from Sunrise Peak drains into tributaries of the Cowlitz River drainage basin. The Sunrise Trail (#262) and Juniper Ridge Trail (#261, #261A) provide access to this remote peak, with minor scrambling at the summit.[4]
