Crescent Towers are towers just east of Crescent Spire and south of Eastpost Spire in the Purcell Mountains of the Columbia Mountains in southeastern British Columbia, Canada. Crescent towers consist of the North tower, two Central towers, and the two southernmost towers named "Donkey Ears" because they resemble the ears of the animal.[1][2]
