peak, summit
峯 centers on the highest point of a mountain: a peak or summit.
峯 is a variant form of 峰, combining 山 (mountain) with 夆, which likely contributes the sound and the idea of a pointed peak.
The mountain 山 sits on top, and the lower part 夆 looks like a pointed shape rising up. Together they form the peak of a mountain.
For ホウ, imagine a climber reaching the peak and letting out a triumphant 'Ho!' as they stand on the summit: Ho -> ホウ.
