Mount Cayley
Mount Cayley is a potentially activestratovolcano in the Sea to Sky Country of southwestern British Columbia, Canada. Located 45 kilometres (28 mi) north of Squamish and 24 kilometres (15 mi) west of Whistler in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains, it rises 2,264 metres (7,428 ft) above the Squamish River to the west and 1,844 metres (6,050 ft) above the Cheakamus River to the east.
Mount Cayley consists of ridges, rounded lava domes and sharp eroded rocky pinnacles with the highest reaching 2,377 metres (7,799 ft) in elevation. It lies at the southern end of a field of glacial ice called the Powder Mountain Icefield.
Human history
To the Squamish people, the local indigenous people of this territory, the mountain is called t'aḵ'taḵmu'yin tl'a in7in'a'xe7en. In their language it means "Landing Place of the Thunderbird". This name of the mountain refers to the legendary Thunderbird, a creature in North American indigenous peoples' history and culture. Like The Black Tusk further south, the rock was said to have been burnt black by the Thunderbird's lightning. This mountain, like others located in the area, is considered sacred because it plays an important part in their history.

by: Dinosaur JrIt's been runnin' for a long time And it's runnin' out in my mind I can't explain it all to you It's really jumbled up So for longer now I'm messed up And I'm wishin' now I'd 'fessed up That concern's no use to you It feeds the pain that stung So forget how I am dealin' Explain to me the feelin' It gets to that point instantly You're ready to unload And I'm the one you're spitting at I'm ready for my fitting at Doesn't make much sense But when I get it calm it's slow [Solo]
It's hard to admit anything I'm sorry for the weight I bring I'll do whatever's necessary To make your mind glow soft It's played out too far to stew And I've run out of grace with you So I'm out and take a walk And we'll be better off Whether I lied As much as you tried Whatever you decide I hope it's good to you For everybody's sake Lord knows we all need a break Do what you got to This is hard to take To the time I spent discussin' I'll sit back and stop the fussin' I won't mention it to anyone And we'll be better off I won't admit to anything Sorry for the weight I bring Do whatever's necessary To make your mind glow soft Whether I lied As much as you tried Whatever you decide I hope it's good to you For everybody's sake Lord knows we all need a break Do what you got to This is hard to take
