Mount Prindle, Steese National Conservation Area

Mount Prindle is a granitic mountain in the Yukon–Tanana Uplands, and is located approximately 45 miles north-northeast of Fairbanks, Alaska. The plutons that form the core of the Mount Prindle massif are Late Cretaceous or early Tertiary age. These plutons intruded older metamorphic rocks. Mount Prindle exhibits classic glacial landforms, unlike most of the surrounding Yukon–Tanana Uplands. It is in the Circle Mining District and many of the surrounding creeks have been or are being mined for placer gold. The area has also been prospected for tin and rare earth minerals. Mine roads and hiking trails provide access to the mountain. A 900 feet granite wall on an eastern spur of the massif is an attraction for rock climbers. ()
