Tŝ’ilʔoŝ, formerly known officially as Mount Tatlow, is a 3,063-metre mountain in southern British Columbia and a principal summit of the Chilcotin Ranges on a ridge between Chilko Lake and the Taseko Lakes. Its striking position makes it a major landmark among nearby peaks. The mountain’s name reflects both colonial and Indigenous histories: Mount Tatlow was officially adopted in 1911, then changed to Tŝ’ilʔoŝ in 2019 on the recommendation of the Tŝilhqot’in National Government. Tŝ’ilʔoŝ is the traditional Tsilhqot’in name, and the mountain holds deep cultural significance, including longstanding traditions discouraging casual reference to it or climbing it.
