    The Rogers Pass is a 1330 m high mountain pass in the Selkirk Mountains in the Canadian province of British Columbia. It is crossed by the Trans-Canada Highway, while the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) transcontinental railway line passes under the pass in the Connaught Tunnel and the Mount Macdonald Tunnel. The pass is an abbreviation in a major bend in the Columbia River between Revelstoke in the west and Golden in the east. He was discovered on May 29, 1881 by Albert Bowman Rogers, a geometer in the service of the CPR. In recognition of the technical achievements in railway construction, the passport was declared by the Canadian government on May 27, 1971, the National Historic Site of Canada.
