Endless Chain Ridge is a 16 kilometre long, 2,867-metre (9,406-foot) high, mountainous ridge located in Jasper National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada.[1][3] The ridge is situated at the southern end of the Maligne Range, and east of the confluence of the Sunwapta River with the Athabasca River. Seen from the Icefields Parkway, the ridge is relatively unimpressive, but from the east side it appears as a rugged chain of peaks, all quite difficult to climb.[3]
