Mount Sifton

Mount Sifton is a 2,922-metre (9,587-foot) mountain summit located in Glacier National Park, in the Hermit Range of the Selkirk Mountains in British Columbia, Canada. Mount Sifton is situated 58 km (36 mi) northeast of Revelstoke, and 41 km (25 mi) west of Golden. It is also set 2.35 km (1.46 mi) north-northeast of Grizzly Mountain, and 4.5 km (2.8 mi) northwest of Rogers Pass from which it can be seen from the Trans-Canada Highway. The nearest higher peak is Mount Rogers, 2.17 km (1.35 mi) to the north-northeast. The first ascent of the mountain was made September 3, 1900, by Arthur Michael, Edward Feuz, and Friedrich Michel via the southeast ridge. The peak's name honors Sir Clifford Sifton (1861–1929), Canadian Minister of the Interior from 1896 through 1905. The mountain's toponym was adopted in 1906, then re-approved September 8, 1932, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.
