Ibex Mountain is a young cinder cone in the Yukon Territory, Canada, located 33 km southwest of Whitehorse and 12 km southeast of Mount Arkell.

There is a road that runs close to Ibex Lake on the southeast side of the summit. A road is an identifiable route, way or path between two or more places. From there is the hike to the summit of the cone. ^[2]

The Ibex Valley, located approximately 16 kilometres (10 miles) west of Whitehorse, is named after the cone. The Ibex Valley (named for the Ibex Mountain) is located approximately 16 kilometres (10 miles west of the City of Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada
