Devils Dome is a 2,769-metre summit in the Devils Range, a compact subrange of the Valhalla Ranges in southeastern British Columbia's Valhalla Provincial Park. Near Slocan and Slocan Lake, it stands among several nearby peaks with devil-themed names, including Lucifer Peak, Mount Mephistopheles, Mount Diablo, Satan Peak, Devils Spire, and Devils Couch. Its name, submitted by Pat Ridge of the Kootenay Mountaineering Club, was officially adopted in 1977. Recorded climbing history began with the first ascent in 1973 by Howie Ridge, Peter Wood, and G. Stein via the southeast ridge, followed by another class 5.6 route on the South Face Couloir in 1977.
