Mount Wood, Mountain summit in Kluane National Park Reserve, Yukon, Canada

Mount Wood is a mountain summit in the Saint Elias range located within Kluane National Park, rising to 4,842 meters elevation. The peak sits amid an area of substantial glacial coverage and alpine terrain characteristic of this remote northern mountain region.

Mount Wood was named in July 1900 by Canadian surveyor James J. McArthur after Zachary Taylor Wood, a North-West Mounted Police inspector at Dawson during the Klondike Gold Rush who died in 1915. A 1939 attempt led by Walter A. Wood turned back 550 metres below the summit after two months of bad weather. On 25 July 1941 Wood, Anderson Bakewell and US Army captain Albert Jackman completed the first ascent, with supplies parachuted to the base camps.

The first ascent on 25 July 1941 was made by Walter Wood, Anderson Bakewell and US Army captain Albert Jackman, after a 1939 attempt by Wood's expedition turned back 550 metres below the summit. In 1998 a six-member team climbed it to mark the 125th anniversary of the North-West Mounted Police.

Climbers need advanced skills in glacier travel and ice climbing to reach this summit, as the terrain requires technical expertise. Late spring typically offers the best weather window for an attempt, when conditions are most stable.

Mount Wood has a secondary summit at 4,798 metres to the north-west. Its northern slope feeds the Mount Wood Glacier, which joins the Brabazon and then the Klutlan Glacier, while its western ice feeds the Anderson Glacier and the Chitina, so the peak sits on the divide between the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska.
