The Gog Group is a stratigraphic unit in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. It is present in the western main ranges of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta and British Columbia, and in the Cariboo Mountains and in the central Purcell Mountains in southwestern British Columbia.[2][3] It was named by C.F. Deiss in 1940 for a type locality near Mount Assiniboine.[1][4]
