Pfeifferhorn is a climbing area in the Lone Peak Wilderness, part of the Salt Lake Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah. The Forest Service manages the land, and the area sits within designated wilderness. The climbing here is alpine, with five routes spread across the north ridge and the northwest face. The North Ridge is the easiest at 5.4, and the Northeast Face and Northwest Ramp are both 5.6. The West Face Couloir is an ice route at the same 5.6 grade.
