Mount Clarke is a mountain in southwestern British Columbia, Canada, located 21 km (13 mi) northwest of Hemlock Valley and 6 km (4 mi) south of Grainger Peak. It is part of the Douglas Ranges, the southernmost subdivision of the Pacific Ranges which in turn form part of the Coast Mountains.[1]

The northwest ridge of Mount Clarke contains the sub-peaks Viennese and Recourse, which are considered separate peaks.[1]
