Cayoosh Range
The Cayoosh Range is the northernmost section of the Lillooet Ranges, which are a subrange of the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains in British Columbia, Canada. The range covers an area of c. 3770 km² (1455 sq mi) and is approximately 65 km (40 mi) SW to NE and about 20 km (12 mi) SE to NW. In some classification systems the Lillooet Ranges are considered to form their own group, rather than being a subdivision of the Pacific Ranges, although the Bendor Range, north of the Cayoosh Range across Anderson Lake, is classified as part of the Pacific Ranges which would tend to imply that the Cayoosh and Lillooet Ranges are as well. The Cayoosh Range is defined by the valley of Cayoosh Creek on the south, which is followed by the Duffey Lake Road section of Highway 99, from Pemberton- Mount Currie to Lillooet, which are at the respective western and eastern ends of the range. Cayoosh Pass, between the head of Duffey Lake and the descent to the Pemberto ...

Cayoosh Mountain
Cayoosh Mountain is a mountain summit located in the Cayoosh Range in southwestern British Columbia, Canada. It is situated east-northeast of Pemberton, north-northeast of Lillooet Lake, and immediately north of Cayoosh Pass. Its nearest higher peak is Mount Marriott, to the north-northeast. Precipitation runoff from the peak drains into Cayoosh Creek and other tributaries of the Fraser River. The mountain's name was submitted by Karl Ricker, a mountaineer, and was officially adopted on January 23, 1979, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada. Climate Based on the Köppen climate classification, Cayoosh Mountain is located in a subarctic climate zone of western North America. Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel east toward the Coast Mountains where they are forced upward by the range (Orographic lift), causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall. As a result, the Coast Mountains experience high precipitation, especially du ...
