Icy Peak is a mountain summit in Alaska, United States.
Part of the Aleutian Range, Icy Peak is set southwest of Cape Kayakliut on the south coast of the Alaska Peninsula and within the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge. Precipitation runoff and glacial meltwater from the mountain drains north into Kialagvik Creek, and south into Glacier Creek and Agripina River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises over above tidewater of Wide Bay in approximately . The mountain's local descriptive name was published by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey in the early 1880s and the toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.
According to the Köppen climate classification system, Icy Peak is located in a subpolar oceanic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and cool summers. Weather systems coming off the North Pacific are forced upwards by the mountains (orographic lift), causing heavy precipitation in the form of rainfall and snowfall. Winter temperatures can drop to 0 ðF with wind chill factors below âÂÂ10 ðF. This climate supports 2.5 square miles (6.5 km<sup>2</sup>) of unnamed glaciers and ice on the slopes surrounding the peak.
