Located in the Northern Sawatch Range, the road to the summit is gravel, rocky and treacherous in parts. It’s called FR 418. It’s usually impassable from October to June. Road closures can be frequent. It’s a rough, rutted, 4-wheel drive road. It’s an old mine road for Polar Star Mine. Altitude and extreme weather are always a factor at any time of year. Near the summit are 3 cabins.
