Stutfield Peak, Mountain summit in Jasper National Park, Canada
Description
Stutfield Peak is a mountain on the northern edge of the Columbia Icefield in Jasper National Park. It features two rounded summits that remain snow-covered through much of the year.
History
The peak was named in 1899 by mountaineer J. Norman Collie in honor of his climbing partner Hugh Stutfield. The first recorded ascent took place in 1927 when two climbers reached the summit.
Culture
The mountain received its name in 1899 from mountaineer J. Norman Collie to honor Hugh Stutfield, his companion during Canadian Rockies explorations.
