Lucille Johnson was perhaps the first woman to climb the mountain. Her parents ran the first hotel in McBride; Wrigley’s Directory for 1918 lists “Johnston L A prop Hotel Fraser” under its entry for McBride. In 1982 Lucille was living in Florida.
There is a recreation site on the mountain, a popular alpine area for summer hiking and winter snowmobiling.
