Mount Elsay, Mountain summit in Mount Seymour Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.
Mount Elsay rises 1,419 meters above sea level, featuring steep trails across rockslides and talus slopes in the North Shore Mountains region.
The first recorded climb of Mount Elsay took place on May 6, 1923, when a group of 29 hikers from the British Columbia Mountaineering Club reached the summit.
The mountain received its name from Elsay Lake and Creek, which likely originated from Scottish settlers who established themselves in the British Columbia region.
Two primary routes lead to the summit: the West Trail branching from Mount Seymour and the Elsay Lake Trail crossing multiple challenging rocky sections.
A Lockheed 18 Lodestar aircraft crashed on Mount Elsay in 1947, with the wreckage remaining undiscovered until September 1994.
