Local name? edit

Is this a local name? I cannot find the mountain in CGNDB nor bivouac.com. RedWolf (talk) 06:00, 18 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • Okay, 13 years later I have a follow-up. It's still not in CGNDB or BCGNIS or bivouac.com but bivouac does have a Mt. Proctor in Alaska. I'm wondering if the peak name was created in error and really should be named "Mount Procter". RedWolf (talk) 05:34, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • So CGNDB has a entry for "Mount Procter" and the map shows it just SE of the Three Sisters N of Fernie, B.C. Google searches seem to indicate that locally it is spelled "Proctor" and a map I found related to those searches show the name as "Mount Proctor" [1]. I'm convinced the CGNDB entry of "Mount Procter" is this "Mount Proctor" as the CGNDB coords are almost identical for BCGNIS "Mount Procter". Also, there is this Mount Proctor hiking trail.

    There is also a "Mt Proctor Ave" in Fernie. No "Proctor" road. CrazyCanuck (talk) 16:50, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Meant to say: 'No "Procter" road.' CrazyCanuck (talk) 16:51, 28 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
