Hallett Peak is a mountain in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park. It lies on the Continental Divide on which it is flanked by Flattop Mountain to the north and Otis Peak to the south. Just to its east lies Dream Lake, which is usually accessed from the Bear Lake Comfort Station. The Northcutt-Carter Route of Hallett Peak is recognized in the historic climbing text Fifty Classic Climbs of North America.[1][2] Non-technical climbers may reach the summit of Hallett Peak by hiking up the Flattop Mountain Trail to its highpoint, then walking south along the ridgeline and ascending the peak over talus piles.
