An asymmetrical shape due to ice

Mount Garibaldi is a stratovolcano characterized by a unique asymmetrical morphology. This peculiarity is explained by the formation of its main cone directly above the former Cordilleran Ice Sheet. Its broad summit thus gathers several distinct peaks, the highest of which reaches 2 678 meters in altitude.
