Mount Hart-McHarg

This mountain was named in honour of Lt. Col. William R. F. Hart-McHarg, commanding officer of the 7th Canadian Infantry Battalion, C.E.F., who was killed during the 2nd Battle of Ypres on 24 April 1915 in recognition of his leadership. On 11 August 2006, a plaque was installed on a large granite boulder adjacent to the trailhead at Upper Kananaskis Lake, facing Mounts Hart-McHarg and Worthington (memorial no. 48025-043), for viewing by future hikers and climbers. Also, a four-inch ABS tube containing a signature book in a stone cairn on the upper slope of the peak was installed by a climbing team supplied by the British Columbia Regiment on 12 August 2006. A dedication ceremony was conducted on 13 August 2006.
