Cathedral Mountain, Mountain summit in Yoho National Park, Canada.
Cathedral Mountain rises to an elevation of 3,189 meters with steep cliffs and a distinct massif formation in the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia.
James Outram completed the first ascent of Cathedral Mountain in 1901, accompanied by guides Joseph Bossoney and Christian Klucker through challenging terrain.
The mountain earned its name from its resemblance to a gothic cathedral, which inspired painter Arthur Lismer to create a notable artwork in 1928.
Climbers access the mountain via Lake O'Hara road, crossing Cataract Brook before navigating through vegetation to reach the upper slopes and glacier.
Canadian Pacific Kansas City railway maintains a pumping system from Teacup Lake down the west face to prevent water discharge impacts on rail operations.
