Skeena Mountains
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Skeena Mountains, also known as the Skeenas, are a mountain range in the north-central Interior of the Canadian province of British Columbia, essentially flanking the upper basin of the Skeena River. They lie just inland from the southern end of the Boundary Ranges of the Coast Mountains, and also of the northern end of the Kitimat Ranges (another subunit of the Coast Mountains). Their southern limit is described by the Bulkley River (a major tributary of the Skeena; its valley and that of the lower Skeena River are used by BC Highway 16) and the upper northwestern reaches of Babine and Takla Lakes, and on their northeast by the upper reaches of the Omineca River. To the north the Skeenas abut the Stikine Plateau and the uppermost part of the Stikine River as well as the Mount Edziza Plateau and Spectrum Range, which are part of the Tahltan Highland.
