Wolf Creek Pass, Colorado
(Note: This page may need reloading on some browsers for new views)
Wolf Creek Pass
is located in southern Colorado, on US Hwy 160, to the west of the
Wolf Creek Ski Area. At an elevation 10,857 feet, the pass sits directly on
the Continental Divide of the Americas. The pass is significantly steep on either side (6.8% maximum grade) and can be dangerous in winter. There is a runaway truck ramp on the westbound side for truckers that lose control of their brakes. A 900-foot (270 m) tunnel on the eastern portion was opened November 5, 2005. Wolf Creek Pass is also one of the
snowiest places in Colorado and America, averaging 436 inches of snow per
year, and busy US 160 is sometimes forced to closed in winter due to the
heavy snowfall.
