Rogers Pass








Wednesday May 27
The ride up to Rogers Pass was a milestone for Mel and Harry.It represented one of the highest elevations so far - another long, steep ascent. (Jackass Mountain back near Lytton was unforgettable guys). Plus, the scenery was fantastic! The mountains were so close you felt like you could just reach out and grab them. The waterfalls springing out of the rocks reminded us that the snow and ice was not that long gone. In fact, the mountain chutes are still full of ice and the parking lot at Glacier Park Lodge had mounds of plowed snow.
