Raspberry Pass

Mountain pass in British Columbia, Canada

Raspberry Pass is a mountain pass in the Tahltan Highland of northwestern British Columbia, Canada. It is located southeast of Telegraph Creek between the heads of Raspberry Creek and Bourgeaux Creek in Mount Edziza Provincial Park. Raspberry Pass forms a boundary between the Spectrum Range and the Mount Edziza area, cutting northwesterly through the middle of the Mount Edziza volcanic complex.

Raspberry Pass is the namesake of the Raspberry Formation, a geological formation of the Mount Edziza volcanic complex. The mountain pass provided a passageway for the Yukon Telegraph Trail which was established by the Dominion Government Telegraph Service from 1898 to 1901.
