Mount Garibaldi, Dormant stratovolcano in Squamish-Lillooet Regional District, Canada
Mount Garibaldi rises to 2,678 meters and features two sub-peaks named Atwell Peak and Dalton Dome, with several glaciers covering its northern and eastern sections.
The mountain formed through volcanic activity spanning 260,000 years, with its last eruption occurring approximately 10,000 years ago, leaving deposits of dacite rock.
The Squamish Indigenous people named the mountain Nch'ḵay̓, while British explorer George Henry Richards named it after Italian patriot Giuseppe Garibaldi in 1860.
The mountain offers multiple climbing routes from Alice Ridge, Brohm Ridge, and Diamond Head parking lot, requiring technical skills due to icy conditions and crevasses.
The Garibaldi Névé system on the mountain contains multiple glaciers that have been continuously retreating since the early 1900s due to temperature changes.
