Michael Peak is a 2,701-metre (8,862-foot) mountain summit located in Yoho National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia, Canada.

Originally known as Angle Peak, the mountain was renamed by Edward Whymper in 1901 for his friend Arthur Michael (1853–1942), an organic chemistry professor who participated in the 1897 first ascents of Mount Lefroy and Mount Victoria with J. Norman Collie, also a fellow Professor of Organic Chemistry.

[2][4][5] The first ascent of Michael Peak was made 1900 by James Outram, with Christian Kaufmann as guide.

It proved to be the terminal point of the long eastern ridge of the President Group, but little elevated above the arête connecting it with the next in the series of minor peaks, yet presenting quite an imposing appearance from below.

[3] Michael Peak is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Cambrian period.
