Resolute Mountain is located in David Thompson Country, western Alberta, Canada, 12 km north of Saskatchewan River Crossing. Its line parent is Mount Cline located 2 kilometers to the east.[2][3]
Resolute has two main peaks, Lion and Lioness. They are each about 3150 m high. Both peaks are glaciated on their northern slopes.[4] Resolute was first ascended in 1958 by A. Hober and E. Hopkins. The easiest route up Resolute is accessible from Alberta Highway 11, where it crosses Thompson creek.[5]
