Mount Duff, also named Boundary Peak 174, is a mountain in Alaska and British Columbia, located on the Canada–United States border, and part of the Southern Icefield Ranges of the Saint Elias Mountains.[1] It was named in 1923 for Sir Lyman Poore Duff, (1865-1955), a junior counsel before the International Boundary Commission in 1903, and Judge of the Supreme Court of Canada.[2]
