Quadra Mountain, Mountain summit between Banff and Kootenay National Parks, Canada

Quadra Mountain rises to 3,173 meters along the Continental Divide between Alberta and British Columbia, featuring four distinct pinnacles at its peak.

The first recorded climb of Quadra Mountain took place in 1910 when F.C. Bell, A.M. Gordon, Edward Feuz Jr., and J.W.A. Hickson reached its summit.

Wheeler named the mountain in 1910 based on its four pinnacles, countering a later misidentification linking it to Juan Francisco de la Bodega y Quadra.

The North Face II presents the most direct climbing route to the summit, with July offering the most favorable conditions for mountain ascents.

Mount Fay, standing at 3,234 meters, serves as the parent peak to Quadra Mountain and sits just 2.1 kilometers from its location.
