Capricorn Mountain is one of the several volcanic peaks of the Mount Meager massif in southwestern British Columbia, Canada. Its slopes appear to be more gentle than those of the massif's other volcanic peaks. The mountain consists of a boomerang-shaped ridge, with one summit at each end and the main summit in the centre.
