Hour Peak

Hour Peak is a 2,329-metre mountain in Garibaldi Provincial Park in southwestern British Columbia, about 67 kilometres north of Vancouver in the Garibaldi Ranges of the Coast Mountains. It is distinguished by dramatic local relief, rising 1,630 metres above the Pitt River in only 3 kilometres, which gives it a steep, abrupt profile. Nearby Isosceles Peak is its nearest higher neighbour. The mountain drains south to the Pitt River and north through Isosceles Creek to Cheakamus Lake. Glaciers include the Isosceles Glacier on its north side. Its marine west coast climate brings heavy precipitation, especially winter snow, and severe cold can occur.
