Features: A very flat alpine area
that is used extensively in the winter for snowmobiling and for
motorized
travel in the summer. All wheeled vehicles must stay on
established hard-surface roads so that tires do not damage alpine
plants and soils which take
decades
to regrow. Mt Leach is the high point at 1930 m. Good views of the
Howson Range to the west, Hudson Bay Mountain to the north. |
