the mount cayley massif has been investigated as a potential geothermal energy resource since at least the late 1970s. geothermal exploration by energy, mines and resources canada commenced in 1977 with the drilling of two shallow boreholes on the west side of the massif for temperature observation. high geothermal gradients of 51 and 65 millikelvin per metre were obtained from this work. further drilling on the east and west sides of the massif in 1980–1982 by nevin sadlier-brown goodbrand limited on behalf of the gsc showed geothermal gradients ranging from 45 to 95 millikelvin per metre. in 2002, bc hydro published a report identifying 16 prospective geothermal sites throughout british columbia. they named the mount cayley massif as one of the six sites with the highest potential for commercial development. there is "promising" potential for a 100 megawatt geothermal power station at the volcano but the severe terrain makes development difficult and expensive. the heat source has also yet to be confirmed through deep drilling.

known originally as the margaret woodbury strong museum and later simply as the strong museum, it became the strong national museum of play in 2006 after completing renovations and an expansion that nearly doubled its size to 282,000 square feet (26,200m2). the institution rebranded as the strong in 2010—housing the national museum of play and four additional play partners.
