History

The mountain was named in honor of Sir Charles Rodney Blane (1879–1916), Royal Navy commander of the battlecruiser HMS Queen Mary. He was killed during the Battle of Jutland when his ship exploded and sank.[4] The mountain's name was made official in 1922 by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.[5]

The first ascent of the peak was made in 1955 by P.J.B. Duffy, G. Hohnson, D. Kennedy, and F. Koch.[1] Koch perished during the descent.

Geology

Mount Blane is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Precambrian to Jurassic periods. Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny.[6]

Climate

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Blane is located in a subarctic climate with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers.[7] Temperatures can drop below −20 C with wind chill factors below −30 C.

In terms of favorable weather, June through September are the best months to climb Mount Blane.

Precipitation runoff from the west side of the mountain drains into the Kananaskis River, the east side drains into tributaries of the Elbow River.
