Visitor Centre at the summit of Rogers Pass. There are seven transmitters,
turned on and off from a small black box by the entrance walkway. It was
generously donated by Back Country Access (BCA) as a public safety
education tool. You can now search for 1 to 7 beacons. They are buried 50
- 100 cm deep, and have small wood targets above them for probing. Please
try to probe gently. Turn off all the switches when you are finished to
conserve batteries. Don't dig up the transmitters, the connecting wires
are fragile.
Practice your transceiver skills!
