The Microwave

This trail begins by turning off of the Telkwa River FSR, known as the famed Telkwa Pass. It starts as a well-maintained dirt road. You climb through a few switchbacks that lead you into the alpine. There are some steep and rough spots near the top requiring high clearance, as well as a small water crossing. You then reach the snow rider's cabin. You can stop here, use the provided outhouse, and maybe warm up in the cabin. Please remember to be clean and respectful, as the local snowmobile and ATV riders maintain it and choose to leave it unlocked for the public. There are many opportunities for exploration on foot or behind the wheel. Please stay on the paths and roads that already exist, as this is a sensitive alpine ecosystem. Views from all over this area are outstanding when you are not clouded in.
