'''Mount Kimball''' is the highest mountain in the Delta Range, a subrange of the Alaska Range between Isabel Pass and Mentasta Pass, about 30 miles from Paxson.<ref>{{gnis|1404703}}</ref> It is one of the twenty most topographically prominent peaks in Alaska.
Mount Kimball is a relatively difficult climb for a peak with low absolute elevation, due to difficult ridge terrain, and it rebuffed eight climbing attempts by experienced Alaskan mountaineers before its first ascent in 1969.<ref name="wood_coombs"/> Due to its remoteness, difficulty, and low stature compared to other major Alaskan summits, the peak is not often climbed. __TOC__{{clear}}
