WikipediaBident Mountain is a 3,084-metre (10,118 ft) summit in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada. With only 103 m (338 ft) prominence, Bident Mountain together with Quadra Mountain form an imposing wall in the Canadian Rockies and act as subpeaks of Mount Fay. Bident was first climbed in 1903 by Charles Thompson and Hans Kaufmann. Bident Mountain has the shape of a bident, hence the name. Bident Mountain forms the west buttress of Consolation Pass with Mount Bell forming the east buttress. These two peaks rise above the head of Consolation Valley.
