Mount Assiniboine, also known as
Assiniboine Mountain, is a
pyramidal peak mountain located on the
Great Divide, on the
British Columbia/
Alberta border in
Canada.
At 3,618 m (11,870 ft), it is the highest peak in the Southern
Continental Ranges of the
Canadian Rockies. Mt. Assiniboine rises nearly 1,525 m (5,003 ft) above Lake Magog. Because of its resemblance to the
Matterhorn in the Alps, it is nicknamed the "Matterhorn of the Rockies".

Mt. Assiniboine was named by
George M. Dawson in 1885. When Dawson saw Mt. Assiniboine from
Copper Mountain, he saw a plume of clouds trailing away from the top. This reminded him of the plumes of smoke emanating from the
teepees of
Assiniboine Indians.
