The ridge was named by the Alberta-British Columbia Boundary Commission in 1921.
Our cubehouse still rocks as earwitness to the thunder of his arafatas but we hear also through successive ages that shebby choruysh of unkalified muzzlenmiissilehims that would blackguardise the whitestone ever hurtleturtled out of heaven.
— James Joyce, Finnigans Wake
