The Transcontinental Railroad crossed the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California. The most notable pass used was the Donner Pass, which presented significant challenges due to its steep grades and heavy snowfall. Construction of the railroad through this mountainous region was a monumental engineering feat, facilitating the connection between the eastern and western United States.
