Geraldine Peak, Mountain summit in Jasper National Park, Canada
The 2930-meter summit of Geraldine Peak stands prominently in the Athabasca River valley, featuring sedimentary rock formations and steep slopes reaching upward.
The mountain received its name from its position near Geraldine Lakes and Geraldine Creek, while also being known as Whirlpool Mountain by local inhabitants.
Indigenous communities have traversed the lands around Geraldine Peak for generations, using the mountain as a navigation point through the Canadian Rockies.
Climbers need advanced mountaineering skills and proper equipment to attempt the summit, particularly during winter months when temperatures drop below -20 degrees Celsius.
The peak marks the northern end of a long ridge that separates Geraldine Lakes from the Whirlpool River, creating distinct watersheds on each side.
