Parapet Peak (Garibaldi Provincial Park)

Parapet Peak is a 2,463-metre (8,081-foot) mountain summit located in British Columbia, Canada.

Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,260 meters (4,134 feet) above Pitt River in 3 kilometers (1.9 miles).

[5][6] The mountain's toponym was officially adopted on September 2, 1930, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.

[7] 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 during the winter months in the form of snowfall.
