Nature
Mount Bryce stands in British Columbia at the southwestern corner of the Columbia Icefield near the Alberta border, and is visible from the Icefields Parkway as one of the notable peaks along a major Canadian Rockies route. Named in 1898 by mountaineer J. Norman Collie for Viscount James Bryce, then president of London’s Alpine Club, it ranks as the fifteenth-highest peak in British Columbia. Ridges connect it northward to the Columbia Icefield. Although prominent and well situated, it has rarely been climbed because access was long difficult, and despite newer logging roads, it remains a remote summit known more for its position beside the icefield than for frequent ascents.
