Mount Prevost (Halkomelem: Swuq'us[3]) is a mountain on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
During the Great Flood one man took refuge on top of Swuqus or Swukas (Prevost) while all the others died.
When the waters receded they moved up island and found the lone Cowichan man.
The mount's modern name is a tribute to Captain James Charles Prevost, RN, who served aboard HMS Satellite and was British Commissioner in the San Juan Islands boundary dispute also known as The Pig War.
There are expansive views of the Gulf Islands and Cowichan Valley from the mountain.
