Mount Rundle is a mountain in Banff National Park that overlooks the towns of Banff and Canmore in the Canadian province of Alberta. Geologically, it consists of limestones, dolomitic limestones, dolomites and shales of Paleozoic age. In ascending order, they belong to the Palliser, Exshaw and Banff Formations, topped by the Rundle Group, which was named after the mountain. Mount Rundle could be considered a small mountain range as the mountain extends for more than 12 kilometres (7.5 miles) on the south side of the Trans-Canada Highway eastward from Banff to Canmore, and has seven distinct peaks. The southeasternmost of these peaks is the East End of Rundle, pictured here from the trail to Ha Ling Peak, with Whitemans Pond in the foreground.Photograph credit: The Cosmonaut
