Mount Cline is a mountain in western Alberta, Canada, 110NaN0 north of Saskatchewan Crossing, 600NaN0 southwest of Nordegg.[2]
The mountain is located in the North Saskatchewan River Valley, 20NaN0 west of Resolute Mountain.[1] It was named in 1898 by J. Norman Collie, after Michel Klyne (also called Michael Cline), French Canadian postmaster of Jasper House from 1824 to 1835.[1]
Mount Cline is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods. Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny.[5]
Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Cline is located in a subarctic climate with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers.[6] Temperatures can drop below -20 °C with wind chill factors below -30 °C.
