Sawteeth is a mountain in the Adirondacks in the U.S. state of New York. It is the 35th-highest of the Adirondack High Peaks, with an elevation of 4,100 feet. The mountain is located in the town of Keene in Essex County. The name "Sawteeth" was popularized by residents of the town of Keene in the 19th century, due to the jagged appearance of its ridge from the nearby Lower Ausable Lake. Erastus Hopkins, a reverend from Massachusetts, attempted to give the mountain the alternative name "Resagonia Mountain" during this era, after Monte Resegone in the Italian Alps. The earliest recorded ascent was made by Newell Martin, a hobbyist mountain climber, in 1875.
