Elsay Lake is a lake 15 km NE of North Vancouver, located near the Centre of Mount Seymour Provincial Park in the District of North Vancouver, British Columbia. Originally named Mystery Lake and still known to some as such. [http://ilmbwww.gov.bc.ca/bcgn-bin/bcg10?name=2861] It has subsequently be re-named Mount Elsay, after nearby Elsay Creek. This names is thought to derive from a Scottish settler, probably after a place name in Scotland. [http://ilmbwww.gov.bc.ca/bcgn-bin/bcg10?name=2858]
