Mount Lloyd George is a 2,938-metre peak in northern British Columbia's Kwadacha Wilderness Provincial Park, rising above Lloyd George Pass in the Muskwa Ranges of the Northern Rocky Mountains. A castellated mass of limestone and quartzite, it contains thick diamictite deposits from the late Precambrian, possibly linked to the Toby or Vreeland formations and thought to have a glacial-marine origin. The mountain also names a major surrounding icefield that in 1998 covered more than 70 square kilometres, with nearby glaciers draining both west and east. Paul Leland Haworth named the mountain for British prime minister David Lloyd George, though Raymond M. Patterson later criticized that choice.
