Lucifer Peak

Nature
Lucifer Peak is a 2,726-metre summit in the Devils Range, a compact subrange of the Valhalla Ranges in southeastern British Columbia, within the western part of Valhalla Provincial Park. Its devil-themed name matches nearby summits such as Mount Mephistopheles and Satan Peak, and it was officially adopted in 1977. The mountain has a subarctic climate with cold, snowy winters, mild summers, and runoff that feeds Gwillim Creek and Evans Creek, tributaries of the Slocan River. Its first recorded ascent came in 1970, when Bob Dean and Howie Ridge reached the summit by the east ridge; established routes also include the northwest ridge and southwest face.
