Tomichi Pass

Overview

Steep, narrow shelf road crosses high pass to town of White Pine.

If you are ready to try a difficult trail that doesn’t involve serious rock crawling, this is your opportunity. Views going up are spectacular but the driver’s eyes will be on the road. Don’t start up the trail if someone is coming down even though uphill drivers have the right of way. Going down the south side to Whitepine is more relaxing.

Rating

Difficult
Trail Ratings Defined

This rating is based on the narrowness of the trail rather than the road surface. Passing is impossible in places on the north side. You may have to back up a considerable distance if you meet another vehicle. Do not drive this trail if it is snow covered. Not recommended for novice drivers or anyone afraid of heights.
