History / Biographical: The Mount Logan expedition was a joint mission between the Alpine Club of Canada and the American Alpine Club that took place in 1925. The expedition was led by A. H. MacCarthy, who had participated in the first accent of Mount Robson in 1913, and officially began in February, 1925 when the team, using horses and dogs to pull sleighs, cached supplies along the route. The ascent started on 12 May when they left the town of McCarthy, Yukon and the summit was reached on 22 June. The Mount Logan expedition was noted as being extremely difficult due to cold temperatures and violent storms. No members of the team were lost.

Scope & Content: File consists of 237 lantern slides from the Mount Logan expedition of 1925; some are survey maps with the route plotted out in typed text. Photos taken by H. F. Lambert, and some by A. H. MacCarthy. Original listing of the lantern slides numbers them at 231 total, 15 are missing and some were labled as "duplicates" (see Notes).

Notes: PS-58, 59, 60, 61, 84, 112, 145, 160, 184, 185, 187, 196, 197, 206, 218 missing from order. PS-208 initially listed as missing, now replaced by "duplicate." Box 6/6 contained slides labled as "duplicates," upon comparison they were determined to be originals and added to the order; they now make up PS-232 to PS-254. This listing was originally part of a larger entry (containing textual records and photographs) for the Mount Logan expedition.
