Nature
Diamond Head is a mountain peak in southwestern British Columbia, Canada, on the south side of Mount Garibaldi in Garibaldi Provincial Park and west of Mamquam Lake. Considered a subsidiary peak of Mount Garibaldi, it was possibly named by Canadian volcanologist William Henry Mathews because its form resembled Diamond Head in Hawaii. Its geology reveals its volcanic origin: the peak is made of tuff breccia containing material from fine dust to enormous blocks.
