Terrapin Mountain is located southeast of Lake Magog in Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park and straddles the Continental Divide marking the Alberta-British Columbia border. It was named in 1918 for its resemblance to a turtle.^[3][4][1] A ridge extending north from the mountain terminates at Naiset Point.
