Mount Wordie is a 4,700+ foot (1,433+ meter) mountain summit located in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, in the Alsek Ranges of the Saint Elias Mountains, in southeast Alaska.[3] The mountain is situated 80 mi (129 km) northwest of Juneau, 4 mi (6 km) south of Carroll Glacier, and 3.1 mi (5 km) north of Mount Merriam which is the nearest higher peak.[1] Although modest in elevation, relief is significant as the mountain rises up from tidewater in less than two miles. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into Glacier Bay Basin. Weather permitting, Mount Wordie can be seen from Queen Inlet and Wachusett Inlet of Glacier Bay, which is a popular destination for cruise ships.
