Mount Nirvana, at 2,773 m (9,098 ft) is the unofficial name of the highest mountain in the Northwest Territories, Canada.[2][3] Currently the Canadian government is working to officially recognize the name Thunder Mountain, reflecting the local Dehcho First Nation name for the mountain.[4] Today, the name Mt. Nirvana is commonly depicted in alpine literature.

Mount Nirvana is part of Nahanni National Park Reserve, the largest national park in the Northwest Territories.
