Nub Peak

Nub Peak is a 2,746-metre summit in Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park in British Columbia’s Canadian Rockies. North of the Sunburst Peaks, it rises among Elizabeth Lake, Cerulean Lake, the Continental Divide, and Assiniboine Pass, with Nestor Peak as its nearest higher neighbour. It is especially valued for panoramic views of Mount Assiniboine and the surrounding lakes and mountains, making it a notable viewpoint in the park. Officially named in 1924, it also has two named subsidiary arms, Chucks Ridge and Nublet. The mountain consists of Cambrian sedimentary rock later thrust eastward over younger rock during the Laramide orogeny and lies in a subarctic climate with severe winters and mild summers.
