We were returning from finding several benchmarks located at the Midway Border Crossing station, when we spotted this sign. It was not until just now that I found that it also included "ELEVATION: 578 metres or 1,896 feet".

The Village of Midway is located in the heart of the Kettle Valley where the Kettle River meets the mountains and meanders through the Canada-USA border.
Midway offers a variety of recreational opportunities for all seasons. Walk, bike or cross-country ski along the Kettle Valley Railroad Trail; canoe, float or swim the Kettle River; explore the mountain side on our hiking trails; or play a round of golf at the nearby Kettle Valley Golf Course.
Green space is plentiful and the James G. McMynn Village Park is the perfect spot for a picnic, or enjoy a relaxing family getaway camping at our scenic Frank Carpenter Memorial Riverfront Park located along the beautiful Kettle River.
The Kettle River Museum, which displays the Boundary area's history, is the location of "Mile 0" of the Kettle Valley Railroad on the TransCanada Trail and is a perfect rest stop for visitors exploring the sun-drenched valley known as Midway...Come to play, hope you stay!"
