Peaks and Glaciers

This collection highlights the high-altitude terrain of Yoho National Park and the Continental Divide. It features Mount Victoria, a 3,464-metre peak on the British Columbia-Alberta border, and the historic site of the Abbot Pass Hut. The list focuses on the extensive Wapta and Waputik Icefields, which feed iconic landmarks like Takakkaw Falls via the Daly Glacier. These glacial systems, including the Yoho and Victoria glaciers, represent the dramatic geological processes that shaped the Canadian Rockies' alpine landscape.
