Point of Interest Sign Request - Kicking Horse Pass on the Trans Canada Highway - AB / BC Border

Sept 27, 2011 Dear Madam / Sir; Upon recently driving from BC back to AB on the TransCanada Highway, I noticed the GPS elevation of the Kicking Horse Pass (East of Field, BC) at the provincial border was approximately 1650 m above sea level. Upon further research, it appears this is the highest elevation on the entire TransCanada Highway (ie. higher than the Roger's Pass at 1330 m above sea level, and higher than Scott Lake Hill West of Calgary at 1426 m). Therefore, I would like to recommend the Government commemorate this unique geographic point of interest with a sign on the highway indicating the name of the pass and it’s elevation, as I believe many Canadians and tourists alike would enjoy knowing about this fascinating location. Thank you kindly! Leigh Muir / Calgary, AB
