No defined trails. 82 and ends just below Red Mountain. Rough road that winds up into alpine valley. Turquoise Lake Forest Service roads open to motorized vehicles are posted with white arrows. Wilderness areas such as Collegiate Peaks and Mount Massive are by regulation, permanently closed to motorized and mechanized vehicles, including mountain bikes.
Mileage is measured one way, unless otherwise indicated.
Although not one of the more difficult passes in the area, four wheel drive vehicles are highly recommended. Good scenic drive for viewing wildflowers, pikas and marmots. Just east of the pass, look to the south over Hagerman Lake to see remnants of the Colorado Midland Railroad. Begins on the north side of Turquoise Lake. Ends at the Holy Cross Wilderness Boundary just east of Bear Lake.
