Here the great barrier of the Rocky Mountains is breached by the lowest highway pass. Once the remote route of the trapper, it now links the commerce of the north and markets of the south. The John Hart Highway was completed in 1952 and followed the P.G.E. in 1958. Gas and oil lines take advantage of this convenient natural feature.

Sign missing. Note from the marker program.

This is the sign’s current text as the Ministry records it in its July 2022 dataset. The Ministry says over fifty signs were replaced or refreshed between 2016 and 2019, so an older sign or photograph may read differently. The Stop of Interest program ↗
