Terminal Peak is a 2,997-metre summit in Glacier National Park, British Columbia, at the south end of the Sir Donald Range in the Selkirk Mountains. Remote and strongly shaped by ice and steep terrain, it rises near the Illecillewaet Névé, the Sir Donald Glacier, and a smaller glacier below its southeast slope. The mountain stands on a divide, with runoff flowing west to the Illecillewaet River and east to the Beaver River. Its subarctic climate brings cold, snowy winters and mild summers. Allan F. Kitchell, Cornelius P. Kitchell, and Edward Feuz Jr. made the first recorded ascent in 1906, and the name was officially adopted in 1924.
