Mount Sylvester

Mount Sylvester is a large formation of rock of the glacier period found in central portion of the Island of Newfoundland.[1] The mountain lies within the boundary of the Bay du Nord Wilderness Reserve of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The mount of Newfoundland was engaged by William Cormack to guide him on his trek across Newfoundland. The area which makes up Mount is known as an Inselberg, a rock tower produced by chemical weathering and further modified by glaciation.
