Mount Whymper is a 2,845-metre-high (9,334 ft) mountain located in the Canadian Rockies in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Located in the Vermilion Pass in Kootenay National Park, it is named after Edward Whymper, who, along with four guides (Joseph Bossoney, Christian Kaufmann, Christian Klucker, and Joseph Pollinger), was the first to climb the mountain in 1910. Mount Whymper is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods as part of the Laramide orogeny.
