Atwell Peak, Volcanic summit in Garibaldi Provincial Park, Canada
Atwell Peak rises to 2655 meters with steep slopes and three distinct ridges composed of dacite rock in the Cascade Mountain Range.
The first documented climb of Atwell Peak occurred in 1911 when five mountaineers successfully reached the summit through challenging terrain conditions.
Local climbing groups regularly organize expeditions to Atwell Peak, establishing various routes and sharing detailed documentation of their ascents.
Mountaineers access the peak via the Sea-to-Sky Highway, followed by gravel roads leading to base camps beneath the southeast face.
Two pocket glaciers flank the east side of Atwell Peak: the Diamond Glacier to the southeast and the Bishop Glacier to the northeast.
