Mount Goodsir (or the Goodsir Towers) is the highest mountain in the Ottertail Range, a subrange of the Canadian Rockies in British Columbia. It is located in Yoho National Park, near its border with Kootenay National Park. The mountain has two major summits, the South Tower (the higher summit) and the North Tower, . The mountain was named by James Hector in 1859 after two brothers, John Goodsir (a Professor of Anatomy at Edinburgh University) and H.D.S. Goodsir (a surgeon on the ship HMS Erebus).〔 The standard route on the South Tower is the southwest ridge, a straightforward but long climb (Grade III), which consists primarily of non-technical terrain, but includes short sections of narrow ridge graded YDS 5.4. Access to any route on either Tower requires a long hike.〔Sean Dougherty, ''Selected Alpine Climbs in the Canadian Rockies'', Rocky Mountain Books, 1991, ISBN 0-921102-14-3, p. 154.〕 ==See also== * Mountain peaks of Canada * Mountain peaks of North America * Mountain peaks of the Rocky Mountains * Rocky Mountains 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mount Goodsir」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
