The peak was named in 1895 by geologist Arnold Hague to honor Cornelius Hedges[2] (1837–1907), a member of the Washburn–Langford–Doane Expedition of 1871 and prominent Montana lawyer. Hedges accounts of the expedition in Helena Daily Herald newspaper contributed to the campaign to create Yellowstone National Park.
