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:
“Sleep shall neither night nor day
Hang upon his penthouse lid;
He shall live a man forbid;
Weary sev’n-nights, nine times nine,
Shall he dwindle, peak and pine;
Though his bark cannot be lost,
Yet it shall be tempest-tossed.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
