Roger's Pass

We left Sicamous early enough and made our way to Lake Louise. We stopped in Revelstoke for Timmy’s and gas. Then we went through Roger’s Pass and saw a memorial for the 58 men that died in an avalanche in 1910 trying to clean up one that had happened on the train tracks earlier and killed 4 people. I also think that that was the highest point of something like that. There was also this wooden thing that had to do with the highway being built. Before that highway the people that drove there had to go on a road called the Big Bend, which meant around a bunch of mountains. Farther down the road was a museum that had information about the avalanche that killed so many and that after that the people got concerned so they made a tunnel underground for the train. I also learned they had an avalanche control group which rescues people and shoots off guns to start controlled avalanches.For lunch we went to Beaver Valley, also known as Vallee de la Beaver and Wilma had made a 5 layer dip.
