Roche Bonhomme, Mountain summit in Jasper National Park, Canada
Roche Bonhomme rises to 2,495 meters in the Colin Range of the Canadian Rockies, featuring steep trails through dense forest and rocky terrain.
George Munro Grant named this mountain formation in 1878, and the Geographical Names Board of Canada officially recognized the designation in 1947.
The French name translates to 'Rock Fellow', referring to the mountain's natural profile that displays the silhouette of a human face.
Hikers can access the trail starting 350 meters from Maligne Canyon parking lot, marked by a large cairn indicating the official path.
The mountain structure combines Permian and Carboniferous layers with darker Triassic siltstone from the Sulphur Mountain Formation, creating distinct geological patterns.
