    Tips

    July 6, 2023

    Hiking

    Chalk Mountain is the western summit looming 500 feet above Fremont Pass off of Highway 91. At 12,017 feet, Chalk Mountain is not the highest mountain in the area, but because it's above treeline, it offers great 360 degree views.

    The summit proper is in a wide open alpine meadow and offers views of the Climax Molybdenum Mine, Mount Democrat (14,155 feet), Mount of the Holy Cross (14,009 feet), and much of the Mosquito range running down the northern Arkansas River Valley.
