Young Peak, British Columbia

Nestled in the heart of British Columbia, Young Peak is nature"s timeless masterpiece. The snowy crest glistens like diamond in the sunlight, rising to an elevation of over 2,815 metres. The Young Peak was named after Julia M. Young, the former Glacier House manager, who served in the position between 1899 and 1920. If you"re as daring as Charles Ernest Fay and Redt F. Curtis—the first climbers to reach the crest— you will be rewarded with awe-inspiring panoramic views. In winter, the peak transforms, inviting skiers and snowboarders to carve their marks into the pristine, powdery slopes. So, what are you waiting for? Grab your gear and set off on an adventure to explore Young Peak.
