List of Boundary Peaks on the Alaska-British Columbia boundary[edit]

Maybe not by that name, but the idea came to me in re a discussion about the overlap between Category:Canada-United States border and Category:Borders of British Columbia, and the fact that in both cases numerous summits help for the boundary; in the case of the Rockies boundary between BC and Alberta that's necessarily the Continental Divide which maybe also could use a subcats Category:Peaks on the Great Divide of the Americas and Category:Mountain passes on the Great Divide of the Americas. In a separate discussion about the border cats elsewhere User talk:Good Ol'factory if I've got the spelling/link right...) the idea of Category:Peaks and passes of the British Columbia-Alberta boundary came up, which would wind up being a subcat of the aforementioned Great Divide categories (to me it makes sense to have both in the same categories, but for specificity and categorization probably that should be two cats). In the case of the Alaska-BC boundary it's not a divide, it's a series of numbered Peaks, most of which currently don't have articles but some here already do. In proposing a Category:Boundary Peaks of the Alaska-British Columbia border, I'm meaning the official named Boundary Peaks:

Boundary Peak 1
Boundary Peak 2
Boundary Peak 3 through maybe 150+; there are few passes along the route - White Pass, Chilkoot Pass, Kelsall Pass (I think...rings a bell), Chilkat Pass, Chilkkoot Pass, Grand Pacific Pass, and somewhere south of Buckwell Peak (in is the Tsirku Glacier, I think it's called, which forms another pass, but I suppose there are glacial passes like it in the more southerly part of the Boundary Ranges....

So what I'm proposing, here, partly, is that the Boundary Peaks catalogue/list and category include the official names for those that have them, e.g. Devils Thumb, Devils Paw, Mount Nesselrode and various others; Mount London I think too, but there's lots; so the category when opened would list them all Nos. 1-150+; many are obscure but all are notable, being treaty demarcation points etc....Skookum1 (talk) 22:27, 2 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
