This is a high-altitude pass across the Continental Divide in the Sierra Madre mountains, named for a battle that took place in 1841. You'll find the crumbling remains of a historic townsite here, and a couple of trailheads for accessing the Continental Divide Trail, which runs north and south of here. In autumn, keep an eye out for the bright colors of aspen trees near the highway.
