Nature
The Lillooet Icecap, also called the Lillooet Icefield or Lillooet Crown, is a major glacier system in the Pacific Ranges of southwestern British Columbia and one of the defining icefields of the southern Coast Mountains. Spreading roughly 30 kilometers east to west and 20 kilometers north to south at its greatest extent, it forms an important hydrological center, sending rivers outward in several directions. Its waters feed the Lillooet and Bridge rivers as well as northern and western drainage systems. The icecap is also linked to railway survey history at Ring Pass, where Stanley Smith's party vanished and two central glaciers were later named in memory of Stanley and Frank Smith.
