Mount Gannett is a 9,629-foot (2,935 m) peak in the Chugach Mountains of eastern Alaska, United States, located 50 miles (80 km) east of the city of Anchorage.
[3] One arm of the Knik Glacier flows from the ice fields of Mount Gannett's north and east slopes, and the Colony Glacier rises on the west and southwest slopes, flowing into Inner Lake George.
On November 22, 1952, a United States Air Force Douglas C-124 Globemaster II military transport aircraft crashed high on the southern slopes of the mountain.
Remains of the plane and the crash victims began to appear at the foot of the Colony Glacier in 2012.
