Chipmunk Mountain

About

Chipmunk Mountain is a mountain in southwestern British Columbia, Canada, located 23 km (14 mi) southwest of Bralorne. It has an elevation of 2,390 m (7, 840 ft) and a topographic prominence of 540 m (1, 770 ft), making it the highest point on an east-trending screed ridge. This horn-like rocky tower is similar to The Black Tusk in Garibaldi Provincial Park. The mountain was named in 1920 by James Landsborough after a summit party had given lunch scraps to a chipmunk.
