Description

Wikipedia

Geraldine Peak is a 2,930-metre (9,610-foot) mountain summit located in the Athabasca River valley of Jasper National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. The peak is also known as Whirlpool Mountain, and Mount Geraldine. No name has been officially adopted yet. The names derive from its position at the northern end of the long ridge that divides Geraldine Lakes and Geraldine Creek on the southeast side, from the Whirlpool River on the northwest side. The nearest higher peak is Mount Fryatt, 7.0 km (4.3 mi) to the south-southeast. Geraldine Peak can be seen from the Icefields Parkway in the vicinity of Athabasca Falls.
