Crowsnest Pass, and Frank Slide, Crowsnest Highway, British Columbia, Canada 18

Description : The Crowsnest Pass is truly one of Canada,s hidden vacation gems.

Nestled in the Rocky Mountains with B.C. to the west and Montana to the south, the Pass has plenty to offer visitors of all ages and interests. The current municipality was established in 1979 and created by the amalgamation of Bellevue, Hillcrest, Frank, Blairmore and Coleman.

In the early morning hours of April 29, 1903, Turtle Mountain collapsed, resulting in the greatest landslide in North American history. In 100 seconds: at least 76 people were buried alive under tons of massive limestone boulders; three-quarters of the homes in Frank were crushed like balsa wood; over a mile of the Canadian Pacific Railroad was completely destroyed; and a river became a lake.
