Pace yourself😬. You risk falls of over 1,000mm😱Since it is a solo climb with no room for error, use plenty of safety equipment. Good luck as you are tempting almost certain injury 🩹. Make sure people know when to expect you back, so they can call rescue services or uber. Leave a will. Good Luck😳
This video should be expanded and taught to every student in every geography class in Canada. I have live in this country for over 70 years and I didn't know any of that.
Gros Morne in Newfoundland would have been a nice honorable mention since Newfoundland and Labrador aren't connected by land. It's 808m and takes about 5-7 hours to hike and the views are amazing.
@@dtniland Round trip, but don't underestimate the elevation. It's a serious hike. Not for the faint of heart but worth it for the views. Absolutely must-do for Canadian hikers.

Manitobas highest point is actually found in a very nice area! The Duck mountains are home to incredible blue lakes. Also, the tower at the top of Baldy mountain is home to some gorgeous views!!! It’s not very high but it’s a nice spot to visit!!!
Manitoban here. Manitoba is pretty low (we had lake Agassiz), which makes the elevation of the Duck mountains so stark compared to the surrounding prairie. Saskatchewan, is on average higher as the elevation goes up, as you go towards the Rockies, of course. But Saskatchewan doesn't have this stark feature for it's highest elevation because it's just higher up prairie.
100% agreed it's staggering elevation gain above the Yellowhead hwy makes it seem out of place in the Rockies. It's summit is anti-climatic only from the aspect that all the views are down cause the nearest mountains are still 500+ meters lower. That said it's still a feather in any climbers hat. 1 of it's my outstanding features is it accessibility and rainforest like vegetation around it base.
As soon as I finished the US high point video about a week ago, I went searching for this video IMMEDIATELY only to find nothing...I am glad this popped up in my recommendations today! 😂
Lived near there in the eastern Fraser valley. Been up there and yes the view is awesome. But Cheam is not 3000 meters my friend . Its about 2200 just below the 7000 foot mark.
In Nunavut, on Baffin Island, the world's highest vertical cliff is on Mt. Thor, and it always surprises me that those big Baffin Island mountains really aren't that high even when they have the highest drop in the world. Weird geography!
Another point of interest about Mount Logan is that the Laurentian elites in Eastern Canada tried to rename this mountain Mount Trudeau. But the geologists in Canada rallied together to point out that Logan was probably a far more important person than Pierre Elliott Trudeau could ever think of being. And thankfully they stopped the process to change the name.
Let’s not get crazy. Who do you thin repatriated our Constitution? Both Logan and Trudeau are important figures in their own right. PS - I’m a geological engineer that lives in western Canada. Chill on your hate.
Born and raised in NS and lived on both coasts, when I drove across I was surprised by 2 things, I was surprised at all the bedrock in Ontario and figured it was higher then anywhere in Saskatchewan, where I now live. I was surprised to see that as I drove from NS to BC my GPS kept showing me going higher and higher, which is exactly as it should be if the west coast is being pushed up
@@zaizoesclashing7103 Nice. I have an older GPS and it does not include an altimeter. I have a very old altimeter. Liquid filled and it attaches to my car windshield with a suction cup! Not sophisticated but it does the job.
As an aside, this seems to be the only video on youtube that mentions Mount Caubvick, that might be the only subject I've ever searched with only one hit. Anyway, thanks for the video, very interesting.
It’s actually the highest point in the prairie provinces that isn’t in the Rockies. Despite our highest elevation’s boring appearance, it is located in some very rugged hills that would remind you of the foothills of the Rockies. Went camping in the Cypress Hills last summer and it really is a beautiful place.

Great video, love maps. At around the 15 second mark there is a really nice map. Wish you could have added the highpoints to this map just to get a perspective of the distances between each high point and their respective locations in each providence and territory.

The highest point is in the lewis hills at 814 meters and is a fantastic hiking spot that is a world-renowned geological site.

Well it’s actually the highest point in your province. Your province is called Newfoundland and Labrador, not The Rock Featuring Some Sand Beside Quebec.
@@oilersridersbluejays Not offended mate, just laughing at the 15 hate comments you left on Newfoundland and their people in this comment section. Rent free much? LOL
4:18 from the Cypress Hills area! The high point is locally known as Old Man’s Back! (Bald Butte is commonly mistook for the highest point in Saskatchewan as it is a tourist point in the main provincial park). :)
Im shocked there isnt a peak in Northern Ontario, just north of lake Superior, that is taller than 640m. There is all kinds of rolling hills and mountians just north of that lake on the transcanada. Its actually a super difficult area for truck traffic with all the elevation changes, and tight curves.
Interesting that the highest point in Upper Canada (the old name for Ontario) is lower than the highest point in Lower Canada (the old name for Quebec).
The names came from the point of view of Europeans coming to Canada from the Saint-Lawrence river. Québec was on the "lower" part of the river while Ontario is on the "upper" part because you need to get through multiple man made canals and locks to get past the rapids of Lachine next to Montréal Before those canals were made, people had to unload ships in Montréal and then reload another ship past the rapids
You sorta lumped Newfoundland and Labrador in with Quebec which a very big no no. So here is my Newfoundland honorable mention, Lewis Hills Western NL at 814m even though Gros Morne is more popular but only 806. I'm not sure what point of Labrador is highest without sharing it with Quebec.

In about 1981 or 2 we paddled canoes from Bear island through Lake Temagami and others to reach Lady Evelyn lake home of that tower in Ontario. At the time we called the mountain Maple mountain we even climbed the tower. Hmm glory days.

What they don't agree on is that they share it. BTW Newfoundland is actually named "Newfoundland and Labrador", and that give's you a clue to the "sharing" issue.
@@raspberryridge8840 or it is just the name of the Province. The fact it is on the border means it is one mountain shared by two Provinces, but alas, neither side wants to give up the name. And the Newfs were a separate colony from Canada until 49 AND that part of the world wasnt given to Quebec until around 1911 or so....but then again, the border between Newfoundland and Labrador vs Canada at that time was not defined. I would argue the two names one mountain is a typical Canadian dispute where neither wants to give in but it isn't like like they will go to war over it
I've visited both the Alberta and Saskatchewan sides of the Cypress Hills. One of my favourite facts about them is the were not covered by ice in the last glacial period and were therefore a refugia for numerous plant species unique to the hills.
The peak of Mount Fairweather is in Alaska but I am guessing that it’s border point is the highest in BC. I had always thought that Mt Waddington was the highest peak in BC.

Interesting that the highest point in Upper Canada (the old name for Ontario) is lower than the highest point in Lower Canada (the old name for Quebec).
The names came from the point of view of Europeans coming to Canada from the Saint-Lawrence river. Québec was on the "lower" part of the river while Ontario is on the "upper" part because you need to get through multiple man made canals and locks to get past the rapids of Lachine next to Montréal
Before those canals were made, people had to unload ships in Montréal and then reload another ship past the rapids

@@raspberryridge8840 or it is just the name of the Province. The fact it is on the border means it is one mountain shared by two Provinces, but alas, neither side wants to give up the name. And the Newfs were a separate colony from Canada until 49 AND that part of the world wasnt given to Quebec until around 1911 or so....but then again, the border between Newfoundland and Labrador vs Canada at that time was not defined. I would argue the two names one mountain is a typical Canadian dispute where neither wants to give in but it isn't like like they will go to war over it
I'm in! I'll do Baldy mountain.
Well done video
The highest hill/mountain on the main land of Nova Scotia is the Villa Radar, located in Beaverbank.
Even the hills in Saskatchewan are flat!
Maybe you should actually come here and see.
I've visited both the Alberta and Saskatchewan sides of the Cypress Hills. One of my favourite facts about them is the were not covered by ice in the last glacial period and were therefore a refugia for numerous plant species unique to the hills.
The peak of Mount Fairweather is in Alaska but I am guessing that it’s border point is the highest in BC. I had always thought that Mt Waddington was the highest peak in BC.
Mt. Waddington is the highest peak that's entirely in BC.
@@darkraven8103 ---- Correct. 4016 meters or 13,177 feet above sea level, and the sea is only about 25 km away at the head of Knight Inlet.
Mt Fairweather is on the border between Alaska and BC.
