Hkusam Mountain is a mountain on the northeast coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, located 10 km (6 mi) southeast of Sayward and 36 km (22 mi) northeast of Victoria Peak.
The name of the mountain is derived from the Kʼómoks word for "having fat or oil", probably a reference to the proximity of the Salmon River.
