The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. At the summit there’s a lookout tower built in 1982. The fire tower provides views for hundreds of miles around. The tower is staffed in the summer, and visitors are always welcome.

hardHow to get by car to Moraine Lake in Alberta?
🇨🇦 Canada
Moraine Lake is a blue-green water mountain lake at an elevation of 1.885m (6,183ft) above sea level, located in Alberta, in Canada. Located near the British Columbia border, the lake is located within Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies and ringed by high peaks. The road to the lake is totally paved. It’s called Lake Louise Drive. As of 2023, personal vehicle access to Moraine Lake is no longer permitted. The only way to access the lake is via shuttles, public transit and commercial operators allowed. Visitors can also bike the road. The road ends on a parking lot near the lake. Starting at Lake Louise, the winding road is 14.3 km (8.88 miles) long. The road can be very busy during the summer and in late September. Situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, the views are stunning and the drive is extremely scenic. The lake is one of the most photographed spots in Canada. It’s a key area for grizzly bears in Banff National Park: Prepare - carry bear spray and know how to handle an encounter; Be aware - slow down, look ahead and watch for tracks, droppings, and diggings; Let bears know you’re there - travel in a group and make noise. The lake is only half the size of its nearby neighbour Lake Louise, but perhaps even more scenic. Due its beauty, the lake has been featured within all manner of backgrounds and adverts for Canada. The road to the lake is closed during the winter (open mid-June through mid-October) due to heavy snowfall and high avalanche risk. When the road first opens in late May or early June don’t expect to see the turquoise glacier water that Moraine Lake is famous for. The lake does not start to thaw until June, the water level usually crests by late June. Embark on a journey like never before!

hardWhere is Annie’s Road?
🇺🇸 Usa
Okay, so you HAVE to check out Annie's Road in Passaic County, New Jersey! It's tucked away in Totowa, just west of Paterson, and right by the Passaic River. This totally paved, 20-mile (32 km) stretch isn't just any road—it's legendary for its paranormal activity! Forget cell service, because you won't get any here. And get this: people have been reporting ghost sightings and crazy happenings for ages, like mysterious fog, screams in the night, and even camera glitches. The creepiness factor is amplified by the fact that the road borders Laurel Grove Cemetery. Spooky, right? The story goes that a bride, Annie, met a tragic end on this road and now her spirit is forever tied to it. Some say she appears as a hitchhiker, so real that people mistake her for a living person until she vanishes! There's even a story of yearly red paint stains showing up, marking her death. Whether it's Annie or the vibes from the nearby cemetery, you'll want to keep your eyes peeled. Oh, and local legend says to watch out for dwarf enclaves in the nearby small houses!
