Nature
Mount Rogers is a heavily glaciated 3,169-metre massif in Glacier National Park, British Columbia, and the highest point of the Hermit Range in the Selkirk Mountains. Rising prominently above Rogers Pass, it consists of five named tops rather than a single summit, with glaciers extending from all sides and runoff feeding tributaries of the Beaver River. The mountain was named for Major A.B. Rogers, the surveyor who discovered Rogers Pass. Its first recorded ascent was made on July 31, 1896, by Phillip S. Abbott, George T. Little, and Charles S. Thompson, and its official name was adopted by the Geographical Names Board of Canada in 1932.
