'''Snow Dome''' is a [[mountain]] located on the [[Continental Divide]] in the [[Columbia Icefield]] of [[Jasper National Park]], on the border between [[Alberta]] and [[British Columbia]], [[Canada]]. 

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 (the other is [[Triple Divide Peak]] in [[Glacier National Park (United States)| Glacier National Park]], [[Montana]], [[United States]]). Water falling on its summit may flow into streams 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.
