The Flathead Range is a mountain range of the Canadian Rockies in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. It is located on the Continental Divide, east of Fernie, in the Kootenay Land District.[4] It stretches 27 km (17 mi) lengthwise north–south from Crowsnest Pass to North Kootenay Pass. The range's toponym was officially adopted on 30 June 1912 by the Geographic Board of Canada, and was named in association with the Flathead River.[3]
The highest peak is Mount Ptolemy, with an elevation of 2,815 m (9,236 ft).[5]
