Mount Robson as seen from the Yellowhead Highway in
Mount
Robson Provincial Park, British Columbia
The peak (12,972 feet / 3954 m) may be seen above
the wispy veil of cloud that shrouds it. The road elevation at this point is about
2700 feet (823 m), giving us this 10,272 vertical foot (3131 m) spectacle.
Approximately 34,375 feet (10,500 m) separate the mountain peak from a roadside
observer along the line of sight.
