Rogers Pass Memorial Park is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of British Columbia, perfect for those seeking both natural beauty and a touch of history. The park features a scenic 10 km trail that winds through the historic Rogers Pass, offering breathtaking views of majestic mountains and glaciers. Rogers Pass (elevation 1,330 m or 4,360 ft), in the heart of Glacier National Park, is a high mountain pass through the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia used by the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Trans-Canada Highway. The pass is a shortcut across the “Big Bend” of the Columbia River from Revelstoke on the west to Donald, near Golden, on the east. The pass was discovered on May 29, 1881 by Major Albert Bowman Rogers, a surveyor working for the Canadian Pacific Railway. To keep the Highway open during the winter, the Royal Canadian Artillery uses 105 mm howitzers to knock down the avalanches under controlled circumstances so traffic is not caught in unexpected avalanches. The image is composed of 220 individual photos and captured using a Canon 5D MKII, Canon EF 300mm f/4 L IS lens and a GigaPan EPIC Pro. Photo by Ronnie Miranda.
