Klitsa Mountain

Canada / British Columbia / Port Alberni /

mountain, summit

1,639 m (5,377 ft)

Klitsa Mountain is a highly visible landmark in the Alberni Valley as it towers over the western arm of Sproat Lake. Summit views are excellent with Nahmint Mountain, 5040 Peak, Adder Mountain, Pogo Mountain and Steamboat Mountain in an arc to the west as the nearest neighbours. Highway 4 runs between Adder and Pogo but is unseen from the summit of Klitsa.

Klitsa Mountain’s situation at the western head of Sproat Lake and proximity to the west coast of the Island translates into prolific winter snowfall. The mountain’s name is derived from the aboriginal word “Kleet-sah” meaning “always white”.
