Mount Carr

Mount Carr is a steep, glaciated peak in Garibaldi Provincial Park in British Columbia, rising between Garibaldi Lake and Cheakamus Lake about 70 kilometres north of Vancouver. Its west and east slopes drain toward different lake systems, and its dramatic relief is emphasized by a rapid rise above Isosceles Creek. Several glaciers lie on its slopes, shaped by the region’s moist marine west coast climate and heavy winter snowfall. First climbed in 1911, when it was called Copper Peak, the mountain was later named for Frank Edward Carr, a British Columbia Mountaineering Club member and Canadian soldier killed in France in 1915. The name was officially adopted in 1930.
