McGerrigle Mountains

The McGerrigle Mountains are a mountain range in the central part of Gaspésie in eastern Quebec, Canada. It is the main constituent of the Chic-Choc Mountains belonging to the Notre Dame Mountains, a subrange of the Appalachian chain.

Toponymy

Formerly called Tabletop, in 1965 the massif was renamed McGerrigle Mountains in honor of the geologist Harold William McGerrigle (1904-1970) who worked for the government of Quebec between 1937 and 1970.
