The Alcan slices through the 50+ mile length of Muncho Lake Prov.
Park. Muncho Lake spreads 7 miles, along the road. As the drawing
shows, the lake is sandwiched between the Sentinel and Terminal
Ranges of the Northern Rockies. Peterson Mountain, above and right,
is named for a local trapper and guide Pete Peterson. He helped
construction crews find the best route for the road through here.
A canyon and creek are also named for him.
