About
Coliseum Mountain is a peak north of the town of Nordegg, Alberta, Canada. It is in the David Thompson Country of the Canadian Rockies. It has a summit of 2,035 m (6, 677 ft). The mountain was named after its amphitheatre bowl shape resembling the Colosseum of ancient Rome. The Stoney First Nations previously named the peak Yahareskin, meaning "mountain with a cap" because of its bare summit.
