Mount Inglismaldie

Mount Inglismaldie, in Banff National Park, Alberta, is the second-highest peak in the Fairholme Range, rising in the Bow River valley south of Lake Minnewanka and west of Mount Girouard. Park superintendent George A. Stewart named it in 1886 after Inglismaldie Castle in Kincardineshire, Scotland. Its first recorded ascent came in 1933, when a large climbing party reached the summit with guide Lawrence Grassi. The mountain is composed of sedimentary rock laid down from the Precambrian to the Jurassic in ancient shallow seas, then thrust eastward over younger layers during the Laramide orogeny. Its runoff flows into Lake Minnewanka and the Bow River.
