Hagerman Pass

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hagerman Pass, elevation 3635 m (11,925 ft), is a high mountain pass on the continental divide of the Rocky Mountains in central Colorado in the United States. The pass traverses the Sawatch Range west of Leadville, connecting the headwaters of the Arkansas River on the east with the upper valley of the Fryingpan River above Basalt, in the basin of the Colorado River. The pass is traversed by an unimproved road that is passable only with four-wheel drive vehicles and on foot. It is open from approximately late May through the arrival of the first heavy snow in mid or late autumn.
