Monida Pass, Rail mountain pass in Montana, United States
Monida Pass stands at an elevation of 2,094 meters, forming a natural boundary between Idaho and Montana within the Bitterroot Range of the Rocky Mountains.
In the late 1800s, the Utah and Northern Railway established a route through Beaver Canyon on the Idaho side, which Union Pacific Railroad continues to operate today.
The name of the pass combines the first letters of Montana and the last letters of Idaho, representing the connection between these two states.
Interstate 15 crosses through the pass, providing a paved route between Lima, Montana and Spencer, Idaho, with road conditions monitored by Montana Department of Transportation.
The area once contained an ice-making plant operated by Union Pacific at Humphrey, Idaho, which has since become an abandoned settlement.
