Level Mountain is a large volcanic complex in the Northern Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It is located 50 kilometres (31 miles) north-northwest of Telegraph Creek and 60 kilometres (37 miles) west of Dease Lake on the Nahlin Plateau. With a maximum elevation of 2,164 metres (7,100 feet), it is the second-highest of four large complexes in an extensive north–south trending volcanic region. Much of the mountain is gently-sloping; when measured from its base, Level Mountain is about 1,100 metres (3,600 feet) tall, slightly taller than its neighbour to the northwest, Heart Peaks. The lower, broader half of Level Mountain consists of a shield-like structure while its upper half has a more steep, jagged profile. Its broad summit is dominated by the Level Mountain Range, a small mountain

  • Level Mountain is a large volcanic complex in the Northern Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It is located 50 kilometres (31 miles) north-northwest of Telegraph Creek and 60 kilometres (37 miles) west of Dease Lake on the Nahlin Plateau. With a maximum elevation of 2,164 metres (7,100 feet), it is the second-highest of four large complexes in an extensive north–south trending volcanic region. Much of the mountain is gently-sloping; when measured from its base, Level Mountain is about 1,100 metres (3,600 feet) tall, slightly taller than its neighbour to the northwest, Heart Peaks. The lower, broader half of Level Mountain consists of a shield-like structure while its upper half has a more steep, jagged profile. Its broad summit is dominated by the Level Mountain Range, a small mountain range with prominent peaks cut by deep valleys. These valleys serve as a radial drainage for several small streams that flow from the mountain. Meszah Peak is the only named peak in the Level Mountain Range. The mountain began forming about 15 million years ago and has experienced volcanism up until geologically recent times. There have been four stages of activity throughout the long volcanic history of Level Mountain. The first stage commenced 14.9 million years ago with the eruption of voluminous lava flows; these created a large shield volcano. The second stage began 7.1 million years ago to form a structurally complicated stratovolcano located centrally atop the shield. A series of lava domes was established during the third stage, which began 4.5 million years ago. This was followed by the fourth and final stage with the eruption of lava flows and small volcanic cones in the last 2.5 million years. A wide range of rock types were produced during these stages, namely ankaramites, alkali basalts, trachybasalts, mugearites, hawaiites, phonolites, trachytes and rhyolites. Alkali basalts and ankaramites are the most voluminous and form most of Level Mountain. The remaining rock types are less extensive and are largely restricted to the central region of the volcanic complex. Several types of volcanic eruptions produced these rocks. Level Mountain lies in one of many ecoregions encompassing British Columbia. It can be ecologically divided into three sections: lodgepole pine and white spruce forests at its base, bog birch and subalpine fir forests on its flanks, and an alpine climate at its summit. The extent and flatness of the alpine on Level Mountain have produced many Arctic affinities that are particularly noticeable in the local biota. Several animal species thrive in the area of Level Mountain, caribou being the most abundant. A trading post was established at Level Mountain in the 1890s, followed by geological studies of the mountain from the 1920s onwards. This remote area of Cassiar Land District has a relatively dry environment compared to the Coast Mountains in the west. Due to its remoteness, Level Mountain can only be accessed by air or by trekking great distances on foot. The closest communities are more than 30 kilometres (19 miles) away from the mountain. (en)
  • Level Mountain est un massif volcanique situé en Colombie-Britannique, dans l'Ouest du Canada, dans une région isolée du plateau Stikine, dans les montagnes Intérieures. Son nom lui vient de ses pentes généralement douces, qui s'étendent sur environ 70 kilomètres de long pour 45 kilomètres de large, à l'exception de son centre formé par des reliefs plus prononcés qui culminent à 2 166 mètres d'altitude au pic Meszah, seul sommet nommé du massif. Level Mountain fait partie de la province volcanique de la cordillère septentrionale. Elle est constituée par un volcan bouclier, vieux de près de quinze millions d'années, que surmonte un stratovolcan érodé de près de sept millions d'années, la transition entre les deux édifices se trouvant aux environs de 1 400 mètres d'altitude. Des dômes de lave se sont formés à une époque plus récente. Ce volcanisme complexe est responsable de la grande variété de roches volcaniques du massif. Il comporte encore des parts d'inconnu en raison des études rares et anciennes et du manque de suivi. Plusieurs glaciations se sont produites depuis cinq millions d'années ; elles sont à l'origine des vallées en auge sur les flancs du massif et d'autres formations glaciaires indiquant une concomitance avec des phases éruptives importantes. Les précipitations sont relativement modérées mais les températures sont souvent rigoureuses. La neige s'accumule essentiellement sur les pentes intermédiaires et les cycles de gel contribuent au phénomène de cryoturbation des sols. Ces conditions sont un frein au déplacement de la plupart des espèces animales entre les différents étages altitudinaux du massif. Ceux-ci se composent de pinacées et de bétulacées en dessous de 1 200 mètres, d'un étage subalpin dominé par le Bouleau nain jusqu'à 1 540 mètres d'altitude puis d'un étage alpin couvert de toundras alpines jusqu'aux sommets.

  • Level Mountain Range är ett berg i Kanada. Det ligger i provinsen British Columbia, i den centrala delen av landet, 4 000 km väster om huvudstaden Ottawa. Toppen på Level Mountain Range är 2 190 meter över havet. Terrängen runt Level Mountain Range är huvudsakligen kuperad. Level Mountain Range är den högsta punkten i trakten. Trakten runt Level Mountain Range är nära nog obefolkad, med mindre än två invånare per kvadratkilometer.. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. Trakten runt Level Mountain Range består i huvudsak av gräsmarker. Trakten ingår i den boreala klimatzonen. Årsmedeltemperaturen i trakten är −5 °C. Den varmaste månaden är juli, då medeltemperaturen är 10 °C, och den kallaste är december, med −16 °C. (sv)
