Kärpf

The Kärpf (or Chärpf) is a mountain in the Glarus Alps, at an elevation of 2,794 m (9,167 ft). The Kärpf is the highest point of the massif lying north of Richetli Pass (2,261 m or 7,418 ft).

On the north side of the Kärpf is located a small valley, which is occupied by a lake, the Garichtisee.

Administratively, the mountain lies in the municipality of Glarus Süd, in the canton of Glarus.
