Rimo I is the main summit of the Rimo Massif, which lies in the northern Rimo Muztagh, a subrange of the Karakoram, about 20 kilometers northeast of the snout of the Siachen Glacier. At an elevation of about 7,385 meters, it ranks as the world's 71st-highest mountain. The massif feeds the large Central Rimo and South Rimo glaciers, as well as the smaller North Terong Glacier. This entity documents Rimo I specifically as a geological formation, the Rimo Massif's main summit and source of three named glaciers.
