Mount Ulysses is the highest summit in the Muskwa Ranges of the Northern Canadian Rockies, in a remote part of British Columbia between the headwaters of the Akie River and Sikanni Chief Lake. Its name is part of a small regional theme drawn from The Odyssey, recalling Ulysses and his long journey home to Ithaca. The mountain is especially significant for its prominence, rising 2,289 metres above surrounding terrain, with its parent peak an unnamed summit in the Fairweather Range near Mount Fairweather. First climbed in 1961, it is an important geographic peak in northern British Columbia and one of North America’s ultra-prominent mountains.
