Everything about The Pantheon Range totally explained
The
Pantheon Range is a subrange of the
Pacific Ranges of the
Coast Mountains in
British Columbia. It is located between the edge of the
Chilcotin Plateau at
Tatla Lake on its northeast and the
Klinaklini River on its west, with a southeastern boundary along Mosley Creek, a major tributary of the
Homathko River. The range is 5550 sq km (2150 sq mi) in area and extremely rugged, with many sharp, glaciated peaks.
The Canadian Mountain Encyclopedia currently classifies it as part of the
Chilcotin Ranges, but this is incorrect as it's on the wrong side of the
Homathko River and to the south of the headwaters of the
Klinaklini.
The range's highest summits are Mount Vishnu 3008 m (9869 ft), Mount Astarte 2959 m (9708 ft) and Mount Zeus 2982 m (9783 ft). Most of the range's peaks have names of gods or other deities, for example Thoth, Hermes, Polyphemus, etc. - hence the name.
Immediately south of the
Pantheon Range is the much higher
Waddington Range, home to the highest peak in the
Coast Mountains,
Mount Waddington, and to the south of that's the
Whitemantle Range. Southeast across Mosley Creek, the main west fork of the
Homathko River, is the
Niut Range, while south of it across the
Homathko River is the
Homathko Icefield and its attendant ranges.
West across the
Klinaklini River is the
Klinaklini Icefield, which is the largest of the coastal icecaps of the southern
Coast Mountains, larger than the
Waddington Range's complex of glaciers and peaks or the
Homathko Icefield. North of the
Pantheon Range is the northwestern end of the
Chilcotin Ranges while farther north, beyond the head of the
Klinaklini, is the
Rainbow Range.
