Rogers Pass, Glacier National Park, British Columbia, Canada

Three days after rainy Yoho National Park, Glacier National Park (Canada) was just as rainy. I basically just drove through on the Trans-Canadian Highway through Rogers Pass. Again, pretty but not photogenic.

One cool thing was that the highway is roofed in places to protect drivers from avalanches!

BTW, I technically went through Mount Revelstoke National Park after this, but as I could see even less – nothing but the road in front of me, really – I didn't take photos and don't even count it as a visit.

“I want to see mountains again, Gandalf, mountains, and then find somewhere where I can rest. In peace and quiet, without a lot of relatives prying around, and a string of confounded visitors hanging on the bell. I might find somewhere where I can finish my book. I have thought of a nice ending for it: and he lived happily ever after to the end of his days.” – Bilbo Baggins in "The Fellowship of the Ring" by JRR Tolkien
