Mount Huber is a 3,348-metre peak in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, in the Bow Range of the Canadian Rockies near Lake O'Hara. A secondary summit of the Mount Victoria massif on the Continental Divide, it was named in 1903 by Samuel Allen for Swiss climber Emil Huber, who was known for the first ascent of Mount Sir Donald. Mount Huber was first climbed that same year by George Collier, E. Tewes, Christian Bohren, and Christian Kaufmann, and its name was formally adopted in 1924. Formed from sedimentary rock shaped during the Laramide orogeny, it stands in a subarctic climate and drains into the Kicking Horse and Columbia river system.
