Mount Myra is named for Myra Ellison, daughter of Price Ellison, both of them members of the 1910 BC Government sponsored expedition to the interior of Vancouver Island. The success of this expedition, especially the first ascent of Crown Mountain, led to the establishment one year later of Strathcona Provincial Park, the first such park in Canada.
