Km 161: There's a trail to the top of the
nearby ridge on the west side of the Road. The view from the top is
well worth the short climb!
Please stay on the trail to avoid damaging the surrounding
vegetation. |
 |
The beginning of the
trail. |
|
 |
One easy
way to find this trail is to watch to the west for this
sign at the top of the ridge, visible from the Road. |
|
 |
This is the sign at the
top of the ridge. |
|
 |
There's a
long view on the far side of the ridge. A series of bogs
lie in the valley. |
|
|
Here's a panoramic movie of the view from the top
of this ridge
If you
have a high speed broadband Internet connection, choose the High
resolution
size (640x480).
Otherwise select the Regular resolution (320x240) size. |

 |
 |
Looking
back down at the road. As you can see, it's not very far
up to the top. |
|
 |
These unique lichen circles
are in many places on the bare rocks on top
of the ridge. PLEASE DO NOT GO OFF THE TRAIL or the
platform at the top -- you may inadvertently damage the
special beauty of these lichens and other plants. If you
must leave the trodden areas, please do so with great
care. |

 |
Another far ranging view
from the ridge top. |
|
 |
All in all,
a profusion of tundra life! |
|
|
