About

Sunshine Mountain is a small mountain lacking alpine like the peak surrounding it, but it makes for a good little drive off the beaten path around Haines. It makes for good mountain biking as the road is an old logging road. From it you can get good views of the Klehini River.

If starting on the Tsirku River side you come down to join the road out to Porcupine.
