Hoodoo Mountain

Hoodoo Mountain is a volcano in the northern interior of British Columbia, Canada, rising in a remote wilderness landscape. The summit carries an ice cap that spans several kilometers and gives the mountain its flat, distinctive profile.

The volcano formed roughly 85,000 years ago and went through several eruption phases beneath glacial ice. These eruptions gradually shaped the present form of the mountain with its broad summit plateau.

The mountain terrain holds significance for Indigenous communities of British Columbia, who have maintained connections to this land through generations.

Access to the mountain is by aircraft or boat, as the area lies far from road connections. Visitor parties should have experience with alpine terrain and glacier travel, as the environment is demanding.

Two valley glaciers flow along the northern flanks of the mountain and feed meltwater streams that join the Iskut River. The glacier tongues reach lower elevations than many other ice fields in the region.
