High Point
The grand and classic Cronin Pass. Located with Babine Mountains Provincial Park this amazing route will take you into the grand alpine. A bit of a slog at the beginning with unknown amounts of vegetation (it grows thick and quick in there) may make it hard to get through, but its worth it. Keep pedaling to the alpine before dropping into Silver King basin. Choose to stay a night at the log cabin (thanks BC Parks) or keep on riding down to Driftwood Road parking lot.
