Lavitah Mountain, is a 1,699-metre (5,574 ft) mountain in the Miscinchinka Ranges of the Hart Ranges in the Northern Rocky Mountains.[1]

Several recreational projects have been proposed for the mountain, none of which have moved forward past very preliminary studies. A private, members only ski area was first proposed in the mid-2000's followed by the Pine Pass Mountain Top Community, a four-season resort studied in 2012.[2] The 2018 District of Mackenzie Recreation Trails Master Plan identified the mountain as a potential backcountry ski area.[3]

In 2012 the mountain was also studied as a potential location for a wind farm project, although further development has yet to occur.[4]

Hydrology[]

Lavitah Mountain is the source for two small creeks. Caswell Creek on the south face and an unnamed tributary of Honeymoon Creek on the north face
