Mount Pinacle (French: Le Pinacle) is a mountain located in Coaticook, Quebec Canada. There are 7.8 kilometres (4.8 mi) of trails on the mountain, which hikers may use free of charge.[4] Experienced rock climbers may scale the face of the hill starting from Lake Lyster. The mountain is exploited for its abundance of maples, with a sugar bush running along a portion of its trails.
History
The hill has been officially known as Le Pinacle since 1978.[3]
In 2013, part of the hill was closed to rock climbing due to the nesting of peregrine falcons on Mount Pinacle.[5]:35
In June 2014, a 10-year-old child on a field trip went to the emergency room after surviving a 10 metre fall down a crevice on the mountain. Approximately a dozen firefighters were onsite for two hours rescuing the child, although he was not gravely injured.[6][7]
