Mount Bross is a fourteener in the U.S. state of Colorado, located approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Mount Lincoln in the Mosquito Range. It lies in northwestern Park County.
With a topographic prominence in the range of 292 to 332 feet (89 to 101 m), it barely qualifies as an independent peak by the standard 300 foot prominence rule. It is often climbed together with Mount Lincoln and nearby Mount Democrat.[2]
For more information on this group of peaks, including access issues, see Mount Lincoln.
