Mt. Logan was first climbed in 1925 by A.H. MacCarthy, H.F. Lambart, A. CarpÈ, W.W. Foster, N. Read and A. Taylor.
Following the death of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, the Chrétien government considered renaming the mountain Mount Trudeau; however, this faced opposition from Yukoners and mountaineers, and the plan was dropped.
