there's a sign on US Rt 2 in Steven's Pass that claims that that is the lowest altitude pass across the Rockies between Canada and Mexico.
Yet, just a little to the South, on the I 90, going through the same mountain range, is Snoqualmie Pass, which at just over 3000', is quite a bit lower than Steven's Pass which is just over 4000'.
By far the flattest route across the mountains is the I 10.
