hardRoad AB-532 E
🇨🇦 Canada
Okay, picture this: You're cruising along AB-532 E in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. This isn't just any road trip, it’s a high-altitude adventure in the Canadian Rockies' Highwood region of Kananaskis! For about 26 kilometers, you'll be winding and weaving on a well-maintained gravel road that connects the paved AB-22 (aka the Cowboy Trail) to Range Road 42A. Heads up, though: this road can get pretty wild! We're talking strong winds, especially in the afternoon, and crazy-fast weather changes. Plus, it's steep in places and gets super narrow. If you're pulling a trailer, you might want to rethink this one. But the views? Totally worth it! You'll climb to a whopping 2,041 meters (6,696 feet) above sea level at a spot called "The Hump." Just remember, this road closes down for the winter, so plan your trip accordingly! Get ready for some seriously stunning scenery.
moderateGranite Pass, the highest point of Kelbaker Road
🇺🇸 Usa
Granite Pass, nestled in the Mojave Desert in California's San Bernardino County, is a must-see if you're craving wide-open spaces and dramatic landscapes. This high mountain pass tops out at 4,045 feet, offering some seriously stunning, desolate beauty. The road itself, a classic two-lane highway, stretches for about 68 miles, taking you from I-15 near Baker down to historic Route 66, east of Ludlow. Keep an eye out for summer storms, though – monsoonal thunderstorms can sometimes cause flooding along the road. Just a stone's throw north of the I-40 exit, you'll find the pass. If you're feeling adventurous, there's a short, steep gravel track heading east that climbs to some communication towers at 4,117 feet. It's only about 1,000 feet long, but you'll definitely need a 4x4 to tackle it! The average gradient is 7.09%. Worth it for the views, though!
