Stutfield Peak is a mountain in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. It is located at the northern end of the Columbia Icefield, 6 kilometers (4 mi) north-west from Mount Kitchener, in the Sir Winston Churchill Range of the Canadian Rockies.
In 1899, mountaineer J. Norman Collie named the mountain after Hugh Stutfield, who climbed with Collie during his exploration of the Canadian Rockies.[1]
Stufield Glacier was also named after Hugh Stutfield, and flows south-east from the peak, in the Columbia Icefield.
