Nature
Mount Tantalus is a 2,608-metre peak in southwestern British Columbia and the highest summit in the Tantalus Range of the Pacific Ranges. Known for its striking snow-covered face, it stands in a landscape shaped by heavy Pacific weather. The mountain lies in a marine west coast climate zone, where moist air from the ocean rises over the Coast Mountains and brings abundant rain and snow. Winter conditions on the mountain can be severe, with temperatures falling below −20 °C and wind chill dropping below −30 °C.
