Nature
Mount Albert Edward, in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, is the island’s sixth highest peak and also one of its most accessible. That combination has made it a well-known destination within the park. In summer it draws hikers, and in winter it is popular with skiers and snowshoers, reflecting both its ease of access and its setting in one of British Columbia’s best-known protected mountain landscapes. The mountain was named for Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, following a broader Canadian tradition of royal place names.
