Ambition Mountain is a mountain in British Columbia, Canada, located 17 km (11 mi) east of the Stikine River and 26 km (16 mi) northwest of Scud Peak. The mountain was originally named Mount Ambition on a 1935 Canadian Geological Survey map but was changed to Ambition Mountain on 6 May 1954, as it was the long-standing local name used by riverboat navigators and prospectors.
