The Echelon Spires are a series of peaks in the Cirque of the Unclimbables, Northwest Territories, Canada. The peaks are on a ridge 800 meters to the south of the Pentadactyl Spires, their parent, and have a maximum elevation of 2370 meters.
Climbing history In July 1955, members of the Arnold Wexler climbing party completed first ascents of all four Echelon Spires. In 1985, a team consisting of Syuichi Okada, Toshiyuko Arai, Masahiko Suga, and Kinuyo Hagiwara established a new, 20-pitch route on the South Echelon Spire via its southeast ridge.
