'''Mount Robie Reid''' {{convert|2095|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} is a [mountain](/source/mountain) in the eastern part of [Golden Ears Provincial Park](/source/Golden_Ears_Provincial_Park) in the southern end of the [Garibaldi Ranges](/source/Garibaldi_Ranges) overlooking the [Lower Mainland](/source/Lower_Mainland) region of [British Columbia](/source/British_Columbia), [Canada](/source/Canada). It lies to the north of [Mission, British Columbia](/source/Mission%2C_British_Columbia) and on the west side of the upper end of [Stave Lake](/source/Stave_Lake), and to the northeast of the group of summits known as the [Golden Ears](/source/Golden_Ears_(peaks)). [Mount Judge Howay](/source/Mount_Judge_Howay) is to the north. Robie Reid has a prominence of {{convert|1245|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} relative to the lowest col between the valleys of Tingle and Osprey Creeks (Osprey Creek is a tributary to the [Pitt River](/source/Pitt_River) drainage).

Together with [Mount Judge Howay](/source/Mount_Judge_Howay), which lies northeast across the deep valley of Tingle Creek, it was known as one of the Snow Peaks, and until its renaming in 1944 was referred to by old-timers as '''Old Baldy'''.  Its name commemorates [Robie Lewis Reid](/source/Robie_Lewis_Reid), a noted historian and educator whose colleague [Frederic W. Howay](/source/Frederic_W._Howay) is commemorated by Mount Judge Howay.  Although relatively low, views of it dominate the mountain skyline from western [Abbotsford](/source/Abbotsford%2C_British_Columbia) and is also visible from [Maple Ridge](/source/Maple_Ridge%2C_British_Columbia), [North Surrey](/source/Surrey%2C_British_Columbia) and [New Westminster](/source/New_Westminster)-[Coquitlam](/source/Coquitlam), though from most of Mission it is invisible due to intervening smaller mountains and hill country.
