Have something to say about Radium Hot Springs (Village) / Mount Berland / Cross River / Mount Daer / Mount Harkin / Kimpton Creek?

• 

This mountain, 11,226 feet or 3,422 metres high, the loftiest in the Royal Group of the Rocky Mountains, is named for King George V. Other mountains in the group are named for his consort, Queen Mary, and their children, the Princes Albert, Edward, George, Henry, and John, and their daughter, Princess Mary.

After Lieutenant-Colonel William Hart-McHarg. A dedicated militia officer and a champion marks-man, he practised law first in Rossland and then, after service in the Boer War, in Vancouver.

On 23 April 1915, commanding the 7th Battalion CEF C The British Columbians'), he was mortally wounded while reconnoitring between the lines. His friend Major J.S. Matthews later wrote of him: 'His massive face suggested nothing of the frailty of his body, which, through chronic ill-health (indigestion) weighed about 140 pounds. Frequently his diet was merely biscuits and milk. He was a cool quiet man of commanding personality and a bachelor.'

Vancouver's Georgia Viaduct, completed shortly after his death, was originally McHarg Viaduct.

They were originally known as Sinclair Hot Springs (see Sinclair Canyon). In 1915 the name was changed to Radium Hot Springs on account of the alleged high radioactivity in the water here.

• 

Part of Starbird Ridge (C-II). The red rocks on this mountain reminded somebody of the red hair of the heroine of Gone with the Wind.

• 

After Sir George Simpson (1792-1860), Governor of the HBC in Canada 1822-60. Simpson Pass through the Rockies was discovered by a party headed by Governor Simpson in 1841.

In his journeys across the continent, Simpson travelled with amazing rapidity. His arrivals at the company's forts were state occasions, intended to impress the Indians with the greatness of the honourable company. We are told of how he arrived at Fort St. James with a bagpiper playing and the British ensign displayed, while the fort fired a salute.

Father Morice is the authority for an amusing little story. To impress the Indians, Simpson had a tiny music box attached to his dog's neck in such a way that when it was started the music seemed to come from the dog's throat. Morice found the Carrier Indians still speaking of Simpson as the 'Great Chief whose dog sings.'

• 

Known to the Indians as 'the red rock gorge,' it takes its present name from James Sinclair (1805-56), who, engaged by the HBC, led a party of emigrants through this passage in 1841, conducting them from the Red River settlement to Oregon. During most of his career, Sinclair was a 'free trader,' operating outside the HBC'S monopoly of the fur trade.

• 

After Thomas Starbird, a native of Massachusetts, who ran a guest ranch on Horsethief Creek before World War I. An expert prospector, he discovered the Lake of the Hanging Glacier.

• 

From the ochre of ferruginous beds in the area. The colour coats the stones and marsh grass of the river flats.

The first white man to use this pass was James Sinclair, who led a party of emigrants through it in 1841 on their way to Oregon. He was followed in 1845 by Father De Smet, who set up a wooden cross at the summit.
