Rabbit Mountain is an eroded volcanic outcrop in the Wrangell Volcanic Field, Yukon Territory, Canada, located 30 km southwest of Koidern and 4 km nortwest of Canyon Mountain. In topography a summit is a point on a surface which is higher in Elevation than all points immediately adjacent to Yukon (ˈjuːkɒn is the westernmost and smallest of Canada's three territories.

A geographic coordinate system enables every location on the Earth to be specified in three coordinates using mainly a spherical coordinate system. A topographic map is a type of Map characterized by large-scale detail and quantitative representation of relief, usually using Contour lines in modern The National Topographic System or NTS (Système national de référence cartographique is the topographic system used by Canada for providing general Mountains can be characterized in several ways Some mountains are Volcanoes and can be characterized by the type of lava and eruptive history Outcrop is a geological term referring to the appearance of Bedrock or Superficial deposits exposed at the surface of the Earth The geologic time scale is a chronologic schema (or idealized Model) relating Stratigraphy to time that is used by Geologists and other The Pliocene epoch (spelled Pleiocene in some older texts is the period in the Geologic timescale that extends Plate tectonics and hotspots Divergent plate boundaries At the The Pliocene epoch (spelled Pleiocene in some older texts is the period in the Geologic timescale that extends A climbing route is a path by which a climber reaches the top of a Mountain, rock or ice wall Mining is the extraction of valuable Minerals or other geological materials from the earth usually (but not always from an Ore body A road is an identifiable route, way or path between two or more places.

Rabbit Mountain formed as a result of melting of the crust, due to subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the North American Plate and last erupted during the Pliocene. In Geology, a crust is the outermost solid shell of a planet or moon In Geology, a subduction zone is an area on Earth where two tectonic plates meet and move towards one another with one sliding underneath the other The Pacific Plate is an oceanic Tectonic plate beneath the Pacific Ocean. The North American Plate is a Tectonic plate covering most of North America, Greenland and part of Siberia. The Pliocene epoch (spelled Pleiocene in some older texts is the period in the Geologic timescale that extends Like most volcanoes in the Yukon, Rabbit Mountain is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, that includes over 160 active volcanoes.
