チャフィー郡の峠・トップ16

Ternitzの地域雑誌で広告を見て、技術が安定しているか試してみたかったのです。一連の悪いカードゲームの後、私はイライラしていて、実際すべてを諦めようとしていました。しかし、Hot Chilli Bells https://hotchilli-bells.pro/ はスロットマシンで新たなスタートを切る機会を与えてくれました。私はすぐに気分が良くなり、古い損失をカバーする勝利を収めました。今日の結果には非常に満足しています。

Beautiful views on this easy trail. If you descend to Lost Lake, which is a stunning turquoise blue, you can make a lovely loop back to Cottonwool Pass.

Chalk Creek Pass is short and steep on either side, so grab those trekking poles. The top of the pass has fantastic views, and alpine tarns sit on both sides.

Monarch Pass from the east is a classic road biking ascent on US Highway 50, taking you high into the Sawatch Range towards the Continental Divide. Starting around 8,100 feet, you'll climb approximately 11.3 to 11.5 miles, gaining about 3,000 feet to the 11,312-foot summit, with a moderate average gradient around 4.9-5.1% that ramps up slightly after the initial miles. You'll follow the Arkansas River valley and climb through forests, and while you're in the sun for much of this side, the panoramic views from the summit are truly spectacular. Be prepared for the altitude and moderate traffic on this well-traveled mountain highway.

Climbing Cottonwood Pass westwards from Buena Vista is a journey to extreme altitudes on the Continental Divide. Prepare for approximately 20-25 miles where you'll gain over 4,100ft to reach the stunning 12,126ft paved summit. This notoriously steady climb averaging only around 3-4% with ramps around 6-8%. You'll enjoy beautiful scenery as you climb through extensive aspen groves which are spectacular in fall. The road over the pass is seasonally closed so be sure to check it's open before attempting this climb.

Trout Creek Pass sits at an elevation of 9,346 feet and connects the Arkansas River and the Plate River Valleys. The pass was originally used by the Denver, South Park and Pacific Railroad to connect Denver to Leadville during the silver boom.

Poncha Pass stands at 9,010 feet and is a beautiful wide, open summit that marks the boundaries between Chaffee County and Saguache Counties, as well as the entrance to the San Luis Valley. This is a great place to admire the views, sip some water, and snap some photos before continuing on your ride.

This section of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail leads from the Cottonwoods Pass into a southern direction. Along this beautiful hike, you will pass nice creeks and can enjoy amazing views of the Gunnison National Forest. The trail can be shortened or extended as desired.
