Colonels Mountain, Mountain summit in New Brunswick, Canada
Colonels Mountain is a summit in Northumberland County that rises beside the headwaters of the Northwest Miramichi River and Sevogle River. The peak reaches about 600 meters in elevation and is defined by distinctive granite formations.
The mountain's granite formations show that parts of northern New Brunswick remained untouched during the last Wisconsinan glaciation. This geological history shaped the summit's appearance and structure.
The mountain presents opportunities for geological research teams to study the Quaternary period through its distinctive rock formations and terrain features.
An established hiking trail leads directly to the summit and the mountain's distinctive granite rock formations. The path is straightforward to follow and takes you to the top of these geological features.
The summit features several mushroom-shaped granite rocks that developed through long-term natural weathering over geological time. These unusual stone formations created distinctive shapes that catch the eye of visitors exploring the peak.
