Alpen Mountain is located up in Squamish BC. To get to Alpen Mountain you would need 2WD/4WD/4x4 with clearance. The road is in great shape. There has been recent active logging. Manquam FSR is in great shape. 2WD Vechicle should Park at the big rise past the Stawamus-Indian FSR turn off. 4WD/4x4 with clearance can drive up higher. Alpen Mountain is a less technical scramble hike when there is no snow coverage. With snow coverage it makes it easy to travel on. We had our winter gear and didn't had to use them. The snow was compacted enough for kick stepping in the snow for the hike up. I can see it's a very enjoyable backcountry snowshoeing, sking, snowboarding and snowmobiling area. We had parked at 1100 meter mark and started our hike in. 9 km round-trip, with elevation gain of 611 meters (777 meters accumulative elevation gain) (1711 meters from sea-level), average time 5-8 hours (depending where you parked your vehicle to start hike), rated as intermediate/difficult (require route navigating skills). Highly recommended this area.
