Labyrinth Mountain peak
Labyrinth Mountain rises to 6,380 ft in Cascade-Range within the Cascade Range range.
With an elevation of approximately 2,381 meters (7,812 feet), it offers a challenging climb for mountaineers and avid hikers. The mountain is characterized by its rugged terrain, steep slopes, and immersive alpine environment.
During the winter season, Labyrinth Mountain experiences a substantial snowpack, making it a popular destination for backcountry skiing and snowshoeing. The snowpack range varies each year, typically accumulating from several meters to over five meters in depth.

Labyrinth Mountain acts as a source of runoff for several creeks and rivers in the surrounding area. The most significant of these is the Lillooet River, which originates from the glaciers and snowfields on the mountain's slopes. The river is known for its clean, turquoise-colored water and offers opportunities for rafting and fishing.
The origins of the name "Labyrinth Mountain" remain unclear. However, it is believed to be derived from the complex and maze-like nature of the mountain's steep, interconnected valleys. While there are no specific legends or lore associated with Labyrinth Mountain, its impressive stature and challenging terrain have undoubtedly intrigued mountaineers and adventurers throughout history.
