Notes
  • ^A Fairweather Mountain is the officially gazetted name, but Mount Fairweather is the common usage. Mount Fairweather is on the boundary with Alaska, with only the summit and about 1/3 of the peak's massif within British Columbia. The highest summit completely within British Columbia is Mount Waddington (4,019 m (13,186 ft),[14] 51°22′25″N 125°15′48″W / 51.37361°N 125.26333°W / 51.37361; -125.26333 (Mount Waddington)[15]) in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains.
  • ^B Because it is on the Continental Divide of the Americas, Mount Columbia is in British Columbia as well as Alberta.
  • ^C Nirvana is the unofficial name of this mountain and shows on alpine literature as such, as of 2008 the Canadian Government still refers to it as "unnamed peak".
  • ^D This peak, which lies on the border between the two provinces, is known as Mount Caubvick in Newfoundland and Labrador and Mont D'Iberville in Quebec. The summit of the mountain is entirely within Labrador, about 10 m (33 ft) from the provincial border.
  • ^E The main peak of Maple Mountain has a higher vertical rise over the surrounding landscape, 37 m (121 ft) higher than the Ishpatina Ridge rising over Scarecrow Lake.
