Princess Margaret Mountain is a mountain located in the Bow River valley of Banff National Park, 2.5 km (1.6 mi) west of Mount Charles Stewart.
The mountain was named in 1958 after Princess Margaret (sister of Queen Elizabeth II), who had visited Banff and spent a night in a location near the mountain.
Famous quotes containing the words princess and/or mountain:
“You may be a princess or the richest woman in the world, but you cannot be more than a lady.”

“There is a mountain in the distant West
That, sun-defying, in its deep ravines
Displays a cross of snow upon its side.
Such is the cross I wear upon my breast
These eighteen years, through all the changing scenes
And seasons, changeless since the day she died.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
