Mount Qilai (Chinese: 奇萊山; Hanyu Pinyin: Qílái shān; Tongyong Pinyin: Cílái shan) is a mountain in Xiulin Township, Hualien County, Taiwan. Its highest point of the range, the Northern Peak, is 3,607 m (11,834 ft) above sea level. It is named after the Sakizaya people. In 1971, Typhoon Nadine's effects caused the deaths of five National Tsing Hua University students hiking Mount Qilai. The following year, a separate group of three university students disappeared on Qilai. Police in Nantou and Hualien launched a delayed search effort, joined later by the Republic of China Air Force and Army. Although the search effort was unsuccessful, it inspired the establishment of permanent civilian rescue organizations in Taiwan.
