Tower Mountain (British Columbia)

Tower Mountain is a 2,269 metres (7,444 ft) peak in British Columbia, Canada. Its line parent is Hermitage Peak, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) away. It is part of the Tower of London Range of the Muskwa Ranges in the Canadian Rockies.

Tower Mountain overlooks the south end of Wokkpash Lake. It is named after the Tower of London. Other mountains in the area are also named after the tower, including South Bastion Mountain, North Bastion Mountain and The White Tower. These names were given by the Royal Fusiliers (City of London Regiment) Canadian Rocky Mountains Expedition 1960, a small expedition with members from a regiment based in the Tower of London.
