Tremor Mountain

Tremor Mountain is a 2,691-metre peak in Garibaldi Provincial Park in southwestern British Columbia, about 13 kilometres southeast of Whistler. The highest point of the Spearhead Range, it rises amid heavily glaciated terrain whose runoff feeds Fitzsimmons Creek, Wedge Creek, and Billygoat Creek. The mountain was first climbed in 1928 by the A.J. Campbell Garibaldi survey party, which reportedly felt unexplained earth tremors on the summit, giving the peak its distinctive name. Officially adopted in 1951, the name reflects that unusual experience. Today, Tremor Mountain is commonly climbed on the Spearhead Traverse, with several established routes and the best weather generally from July through September.
