Pacific Ranges Cascade Range

White Prairie

5,040 ft

White Prairie is a prominent peak located in the Pacific Ranges mountain range in British Columbia, Canada. Standing at an impressive elevation, it reaches a height of approximately 2,500 meters (8,202 feet). This majestic mountain is known for its vast size, spanning across a large area with rugged terrain and stunning alpine landscapes.

During the winter season, White Prairie experiences a significant snowpack range due to its high elevation and exposure to heavy precipitation. The mountain's snowpack depth can vary greatly, ranging from several meters to over 5 meters (16 feet) in some areas. This makes it a popular destination for winter mountaineering and backcountry skiing enthusiasts.

White Prairie is also home to several creeks and rivers that receive runoff from the mountain's snowmelt. These include the picturesque Prairie Creek and the nearby White River. These waterways provide a vital source of freshwater for local ecosystems and support diverse wildlife in the region.

Regarding the history of the name and any associated legends, there is limited information available from verified sources. It is important to rely on reputable historical accounts or local indigenous knowledge to avoid perpetuating inaccurate or misleading information.
