Stanley Peak is a 3,155 m high mountain located in the Ball Range, at the northeastern section of Kootenay National Park, in the Canadian Rocky Mountains (British Columbia / Canada).〔 〕 The mountain was named in 1901 by its first climber, the English explorer Edward Whymper, after Frederick Stanley, 16th Earl of Derby, the sixth Governor-General of Canada.〔〔〔 There are sources that date the naming in 1912 after Stanley H. Mitchell, Secretary-Treasurer of Alpine Club of Canada. The peak is visible from the Trans-Canada Highway and Highway 93. Stanley Glacier on the northeast face of the peak can be seen up close by following a hiking trail into a hanging valley between the peak and a southern outlier of Storm Mountain. Stanley Peak can be ascended from a scrambling route by late summer but involves much routefinding among the many ledges and gullies on the north face. Climbing routes (UIAA III) travel the north and northeast faces. == Other BC peaks == There are another two peaks in British Columbia called Stanley Peak. One is 2,935 m high, located at the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (), 24 km north-west from Keyhole Falls and 62 km west from Gold Bridge,.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stanley Peak - British Columbia #1801 )〕 The other is 2,030 m high, in the Stikine Region () (90 km north-west from Skagway, Alaska USA).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stanley Peak - British Columbia #27133 )〕 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「Stanley Peak (Ball Range)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
