In 1991 “The Grand Fleet Expedition” from Calgary’s No. 144 Lake Bonavista Sea Venturer Company climbed a number of the mountains in the Kananaskis area whose names are related to the battle. In order to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Battle of Jutland, they recommended that Mount Nomad be named in honour of HMS Nomad.
