Explorer Peak is a 12,708-foot elevation (3,873 m) mountain summit located in Duchesne County, Utah, United States.
Explorer Peak is set within the High Uintas Wilderness on land managed by Ashley National Forest.
[5] Topographic relief is significant as the west aspect rises 1,700 feet (520 meters) in less than one-half mile and the north aspect rises 1,440 feet (440 meters) above Crater Lake in one-third mile.
Precipitation runoff from this mountain drains west to Fall Creek and east into tributaries of the Lake Fork River.
The landform's toponym was officially adopted in 1957 by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names to honor the Explorer Scouts.
