At the same time Blakiston was naming his mountain "Castle Mountain" (Those "Brits" loved castles.) James Hector was doing the same thing in today's Banff National Park.

Hector's Castle Mountain remains but Blakiston's (so as there would be less confusion) became Windsor Mountain with a castle peak.

Would you like to see James Hector's Castle Mountain?
