Milner Pass
Milner Pass (elevation 10758 ft) is a mountain pass in the Rocky Mountains of northern Colorado in the United States. It is located on the continental divide in the Front Range, within Rocky Mountain National Park, along the boundary between Larimer and Grand counties. The pass provides the passage over the continental divide for U.S. Highway 34 on Trail Ridge Road between Estes Park and Granby. The pass is not, however, the high point on Trail Ridge Road, which crests at 12183 ft east of the pass within Rocky Mountain National Park. Along with the rest of Trail Ridge Road, the pass is generally closed in winter from the first heavy snow fall (usually October) until the opening of the road around Memorial Day. The pass divides the headwaters of the Cache la Poudre River (which issues from Poudre Lake) just east of the pass) and several creeks near the headwaters of the Colorado River to the west. The road near the pass provides a panoramic view of the Never Summer Mountains to the west.
