Mount King George

Mount King George is a peak in Kluane National Park and Reserve in Yukon, within a region of some of Canada’s highest and most heavily glaciated mountains. Named in 1935 alongside nearby Mount Queen Mary for the silver jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary, it carries a commemorative royal name in the St. Elias region. The mountain also holds a place in climbing history: its first published ascent was made in 1965 by the southwest ridge, and later expeditions, including one in 1996 whose results were published, show its continuing significance as a documented mountaineering objective.
