Diadem Peak
Diadem Peak is a mountain located in the Sunwapta River Valley of Jasper National Park. Diadem Peak is essentially the high point of a ridge leading down from the slightly higher Mount Woolley (3,460m). The mountain was named in 1898 by the first ascent team of J. Norman Collie, Hugh Stutfield and Hermann Woolley. Upon reaching the summit, they discovered a crown (diadem) of snow about 30 metres high covering the almost flat layer of rocks on top.
