Mount Fitzsimmons

Mount Fitzsimmons is a 2,603-metre glaciated summit in Garibaldi Provincial Park in southwestern British Columbia, near Whistler and among the highest points of the Fitzsimmons Range. Diavolo Glacier lies below its southeast side and Fitzsimmons Glacier descends its northwest slopes, with runoff feeding tributaries of the Cheakamus River. Its recorded climbing history began on August 19, 1924, when a British Columbia Mountaineering Club party made the first ascent by the South Face; later routes included the West Ridge in 1964 and the North Face in 1981. The mountain was named for prospector James Fitzsimmons, and the name was officially adopted in 1930.
