Cathedral Mountain (North Shore Mountains)
Cathedral Mountain is a mountain summit located in British Columbia, Canada. Description Cathedral Mountain is a 1,737-meter-elevation (5,699-foot) peak situated 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) north of Vancouver, in the North Shore Mountains which are a subrange of the Coast Mountains. Precipitation runoff from Cathedral Mountain drains east to the Seymour River, and west to the Capilano River via Eastcap Creek. Cathedral is more notable for its steep rise above local terrain than for its absolute elevation. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,500 meters (4,920 feet) above Seymour Valley in three kilometers (1.9 mile). Access to the peak is off-limits because the mountain lies within the Metro Vancouver watersheds which provide clean drinking water to the city. There are radio repeater towers on the summit. History The first ascent of the summit was made 11 October 1908 by Basil S. Darling and H. Hewton. The landform was named for its cathe ...

North Shore Mountains
The North Shore Mountains are a mountain range overlooking Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada. Their southernmost peaks are visible from most areas in Vancouver and form a distinctive backdrop for the city. The steep southern slopes of the North Shore Mountains limit the extent to which the mainland municipalities of Greater Vancouver's North Shore (West Vancouver, the District of North Vancouver, the City of North Vancouver and the Village of Lions Bay) can grow. In many places on the North Shore, residential neighbourhoods abruptly end and rugged forested slopes begin. These forested slopes are crisscrossed by a large network of trails including the Baden-Powell Trail, the Howe Sound Crest Trail, the Binkert/Lions Trail and a wide variety of mountain biking trails. The North Shore Mountains are a small subrange of the Pacific Ranges, the southernmost grouping of the vast Coast Mountains. They are bounded on the south by Burrard Inlet, on the west and north-west by Howe So ...

Cathedral Mountain (Yoho)
Cathedral Mountain is a complex massif located six kilometres northwest of Lake O'Hara in Yoho National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia, Canada. Its shape and structure conjures up a resemblance to a gothic cathedral that has inspired many artists, including Group of Seven's Arthur Lismer, to paint it back in 1928. This picturesque mountain is visible from Highway 1, the Trans-Canada Highway near Kicking Horse Pass. Its nearest higher peak is Mount Stephen, to the west. To prevent damage to its operations, CP Rail pumps overflow from ''Teacup Lake'' down the west face of Cathedral in order to minimize the subglacial lake's discharging in a phenomenon known as a jökulhlaup. History The name Cathedral Mountain was in use as early as 1884 and appeared on George Dawson's 1886 map. The first ascent of Cathedral Mountain was made in 1901 by James Outram, with guides Joseph Bossoney, and Christian Klucker. The mountain's name was officially adopted in 1924 when ...

Mount Meager (British Columbia)
Mount Meager (also known as The Cathedral) is a mountain in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains in British Columbia, Canada. It represents the second highest peak of the Mount Meager massif, a group of coalescent stratovolcanoes in the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt. The mountain was the source of the 2010 Mount Meager landslide. On August 6, the southern peak of Meager collapsed in a series of major rockfalls. The rockfalls transformed into a large debris flow that dammed Meager Creek for about one day. The landslide dam was about high and impounded water in a temporary lake about long. The debris flow also crossed the Lillooet River The Lillooet River is a major river of the southern Coast Mountains of British Columbia. It begins at Silt Lake, on the southern edge of the Lillooet Crown Icecap about 80 kilometres northwest of Pemberton and about 85 kilometres northwest of W ... downstream and wiped out a forestry road on the opposite bank of the Lillooet River.

The university, hospital, library, and retail make Alpine the center of the sprawling but wide open Big Bend area (combined population only 12,500) including Brewster, Presidio, and Jeff Davis counties. History The area had been a campsite for cattlemen tending their herds between 1878 and the spring of 1882, when a town of tents was created by railroad workers and their families. Because the section of the railroad was called Osborne, that was the name of the small community for a brief time. The railroad needed access to water from springs owned by brothers named Daniel and Thomas Murphy, so it entered into an agreement with the Murphys to change the name of the section and settlement to Murphyville in exchange for a contract to use the spring. In Novembe ...
