summitless

Lacking a top

Summitless describes something without a summit or peak—a mountain so tall its top disappears into clouds, or figuratively, an ambition with no final achievement to reach.

The word emphasizes endlessness or incompleteness: summitless peaks lost in mist, a summitless climb toward perfection.
