Mount Sampson is a 2,811-metre (9,222-foot) mountain summit located in the Thiassi Range of the Coast Mountains, in the Pemberton Valley of southwestern British Columbia, Canada. It is the highest point in the Thiassi Range.[3] Sampson is situated 41 km (25 mi) northwest of Pemberton, and 21.5 km (13 mi) southeast of Mount Ethelweard, which is its nearest higher peak. Precipitation runoff from the peak drains into tributaries of the Lillooet and Hurley Rivers.

The mountain was named in association with Sampson Creek, which flows south from the mountain. In 1911, E.N. Sampson acquired a preemption located on the east side of the locally named Sampson Creek.[4] It was spelled Samson Mountain when it was first adopted in 1967 on maps. The spelling was officially corrected and adopted April 29, 1983, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada to conform with the creek.[2] The first ascent of the mountain was made in 1935 by Preston Tait, John Ronayne, and Ronald Ronayne.[1]
