Manx Peak is a 3,044-metre (9,987 ft) mountain summit located in Jasper National Park, in the Trident Range of the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. The town of Jasper is situated 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) to the north-northeast. Circus Valley lies at the south side of the mountain, and the northeast aspect towers above the head of the valley of Whistlers Creek. Its nearest higher peak is Mount Estella, 1.8 km (1.1 mi) to the southwest, and Terminal Mountain lies 2.0 km (1.2 mi) to the east. The peak is composed of sedimentary rock laid down from the Precambrian to the Jurassic periods and pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny.[4]
