The mountain is in the North West Territory forming the end of the Rocky mountain chain, I've seen it listed as 5959m high, is that acurate? And where would it rank amoung the worlds hightest peaks?

Yes that is accurate as measured in 1992.
But it isn't in the top 100 worldwide. It's about 127th and 2,900 meters short of number 1. It is Number 2 in North America.
It isn't NWT, it is in the Yukon Territory.

Wrong it is in the Yukon and 5959 is the Marker it is higher in winter due to snow cover
Not the Rockies but the Alaska/Yukon Ranges - Hummingbird Ridge
