Mount Cayley, Stratovolcano in Pacific Ranges, British Columbia, Canada.
Mount Cayley rises to 2,385 meters above sea level, featuring steep slopes composed of dacite rock formations along the Powder Mountain Icefield.
The first documented climb occurred in July 1928 by Alpine Club of Canada members, leading to its official naming after mountaineer Beverley Cochrane Cayley.
The Squamish people name this mountain taḵ'taḵmu'yin tl'a in7in'axa7en, translating to Landing Place of the Thunderbird in their traditional language.
Access to Mount Cayley requires advanced mountaineering skills and proper equipment due to its remote location 45 kilometers north of Squamish.
Three major debris avalanches from Mount Cayley occurred within 10,000 years, each blocking the Squamish River and creating temporary lakes upstream.
