Field

Field has served as a railway settlement in British Columbia’s Canadian Rockies since the late 19th century. Set on the Kicking Horse River inside Yoho National Park, it remains a small community on the route of the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Trans-Canada Highway. The nearby Spiral Tunnels, completed in 1909, were built to ease the railway’s steep descent through Kicking Horse Pass; trains still trace their looping course beneath Mount Ogden and Cathedral Mountain. Field is also close to the Burgess Shale fossil beds, part of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site.
