Nature
Cayoosh Mountain is a 2,561-metre peak in the Cayoosh Range of southwestern British Columbia, just north of Cayoosh Pass. Its runoff feeds Cayoosh Creek and other tributaries of the Fraser River, tying it to the watershed east of the Coast Mountains. Pacific weather systems give the area a severe subarctic climate, with heavy snowfall, a glacier on the northeast slope, and winter cold that can drop below −20 °C with even harsher wind chill. The mountain’s present name was officially adopted in 1979, and established climbing routes include the Southwest, South, and North ridges, with the East Face used in winter.
