Klapperhorn Mountain

Klapperhorn Mountain is a 2,301-meter horn-shaped summit in Mount Robson Provincial Park in British Columbia, forming the northernmost peak of the Selwyn Range and rising sharply above the Robson Valley. Its steep relief, climbing about 1,400 meters in just 2 kilometers, makes it especially prominent beside the Yellowhead Highway and the Canadian National Railway, two major routes through the region. Runoff from the mountain drains north into the Fraser River. Named by BC Parks in 1972 and officially adopted in 1978, Klapperhorn takes its name from the loud rockslides often heard by nearby campers, adding to its identity as both landmark and local curiosity.
