Mitre Peak is a large mountain with a large cliff face. But the cliff face doesn’t reach to the summit. Mitre peak’s summit is taller than the Molokai/Kalaupapa cliff faces, but Molokai’s cliff face is taller than Mitre Peak’s cliff face.

The entire east side of the mountain is a cliff face from the summit to the sea, it has an average inclination of 60°

The tallest cliffs on Moloka'i (the ones in OP's photo) are 1,013m high with an average inclination of 55°

Mitre Peak's eastern face is both taller and steeper than those in Moloka'i.
