In good conditions, this spur road from the byway to the top of Ptarmaigan Pass should be passable to most passenger vehicles. North of the pass, it will soon deteriorate and become a true 4wd route requiring low range.
Photo Ops:
The pass sits below the summit of Resolution Mountain and offers terrific vistas in all directions. Fall foliage can be impressive.
