Homathko Icefield

Although adjacent to Mount Queen Bess, the Homathko Icefield is largely an expanse of ice, about 30 km (19 mi) across, ringed by relatively minor peaks and distinguished, relative to the other Coast Mountains icefields, by lack of any major ones.

The icefield is essentially one large ice-girt montane plateau between these two rivers.

The highest summit of the icefield is Mount Grenville, located at its southern edge.

Homathko is a derivation of Homalco or Homalhco or Homalhko, who are a subgroup of the Mainland Comox whose territory includes Bute and Toba Inlets.
