Chetamon Mountain, Mountain summit in Jasper National Park, Canada
Chetamon Mountain rises to 2,606 meters in the De Smet Range of the Canadian Rockies, offering views across the Athabasca Valley from its position.
Morrison P. Bridgland, a Dominion Land Surveyor, named numerous peaks throughout Jasper National Park including Chetamon Mountain during his 1916 expeditions.
The mountain's name comes from the Stoney language word for 'squirrel', inspired by two distinctive rocks on the peak's arête resembling this animal.
The climbing season extends from June through September, with routes beginning at a small pull-out past the Snaring Campground through old logging roads.
The mountain features specific geological formations where precipitation runoff feeds into the Athabasca River through both the Snaring River and Cobblestone Creek.
