A pyramidal peak, sometimes in its most extreme form called a glacial horn, is an angular, sharply-pointed mountaintop created by the erosion of multiple glaciers converging on a central point.
Famous quotes containing the word peak:
“In the mountains, the shortest way is from peak to peak: but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are addressed, great and lofty.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
