Trail description

Segment 6 of the Colorado Trail from Kenosha Pass west through aspen groves, famous for their autumn gold, down across the Jefferson Creek valley and up above the treeline to Georgia Pass (3,531 m) on the Continental Divide. Afternoon thunderstorms are common in summer, so plan to be off the open ground by midday.
