The mountain was named in 1898 by J. Norman Collie because its snow-capped [[massif]] resembles a dome.<ref name=peakfinder/> The mountain, reaching a height of {{m to ft|3456|abbr=yes|precision=0}}, is a hydrological apex of North America as water from this point(the other is [[Triple Divide Peak]] in [[Glacier National Park (United States)| Glacier National Park]], [[Montana]], [[United States]]). Water falling on its summit may flows into riverstreams that drain into the [[Pacific Ocean]] (via the [[Columbia River]]), the [[Arctic Ocean]] (via the [[Athabasca River]]), and [[Hudson Bay]] (via the [[North Saskatchewan River]]). The ''Dome Glacier'' flows to the north-east, the ''Stutfield Glacier'' to the north-west, the ''Columbia Glacier'' to the west and [[Athabasca Glacier]] flows to the east of the mountain. ==References== {{reflist}} {{Canadian Rockies|state=collapsed}} [[Category:Mountains of Alberta]] [[Category:Mountains of British Columbia]] [[Category:Great Divide of North America]] ---- {{Alberta-geo-stub}} [[nl:Snow Dome (berg)]] All content in the above text box is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license Version 4 and was originally sourced from https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=119457597.
