History

The peak was named in 1911 by Mary Schäffer for H. R. Charlton, a railroad official who served with the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway as the General Advertising Agent.[2]

The first ascent was made in 1921 by W.R. Hainsworth and M.M. Strumia.[3]

The mountain's name was made official in 1947 by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.[4]

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Charlton is located in a subarctic climate with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers.[5] Temperatures can drop below {{Convert|-20|C|F|lk=on|abbr=off}} with wind chill factors below {{Convert|-30|C|F|abbr=on}}. Precipitation runoff from Mount Charlton drains into the Maligne River, which is a tributary of the Athabasca River.
