Mount Steele

description Mount Steele Overview

Mount Steele is the fifth highest mountain in Canada at 5,067 meters (16,624 feet), located in the Saint Elias Mountains of Yukon Territory within Kluane National Park and Reserve. It was named in 1900 after Sir Sam Steele, a prominent figure in the North-West Mounted Police. Despite its significant height, the mountain receives relatively few climbing attempts compared to other major Canadian peaks due to its remote location and challenging access conditions. The mountain was first successfully climbed in 1935 by a team led by Andrew Taylor, making it one of the last major peaks in the Saint Elias Range to be summited.
