Der Mount Robson ist mit 3954 m der höchste Berg in den Kanadischen Rocky Mountains und nach dem Mount Waddington der zweithöchste vollständig in British Columbia gelegene Berg. Der Berg liegt in den Continental Ranges, dort in der Rainbow Range, einer Bergkette der Rocky Mountains, die im Süden vom Oberlauf des Fraser River begrenzt wird. Vermutlich wurde der Berg im 19. Jahrhundert nach Colin Robertsen, einem Pelzhändler der Hudson’s Bay Company, benannt. Andere inoffizielle Namen für diesen Berg sind: Cloud Cap Mountain, Snow Cap Mountain oder der Shuswap-Name Yuh-hai-has-kun, was The Mountain of the Spiral Road bedeutet.

Mount Robson is the most prominent mountain in North America's Rocky Mountain range; it is also the highest point in the Canadian Rockies. The mountain is located entirely within Mount Robson Provincial Park of British Columbia, and is part of the Rainbow Range. Mount Robson is the second highest peak entirely in British Columbia, behind Mount Waddington in the Coast Range. The south face of Mount Robson is clearly visible from the Yellowhead Highway (Highway 16), and is one of the most photographed features along this route.
Mount Robson was likely named after Colin Robertson, who worked for both the North West Company and the Hudson’s Bay Company at various times in the early 19th century, though there was confusion over the name as many assumed it to have been named for John Robson, an early premier of British Columbia. The Texqakallt, a Secwepemc people and the earliest inhabitants of the area, call it Yuh-hai-has-kun, The Mountain of the Spiral Road. Other unofficial names include Cloud Cap Mountain. Q:Wikipedia
