Howse Pass connects the North Saskatchewan River and Columbia River systems. While the North Saskatchewan River drains to the east and empties into Hudson Bay, the waters of the Columbia River flow into the Pacific Ocean.
At 1,539 m (5,000 ft) elevation, Howse Pass is lower than other passes in the Rocky Mountains. However, plans to build a road over the pass were scrapped because it would have passed through Banff National Park.
Howse Pass was declared a National Historic Site of Canada in 1978.
