Schofield Pass

Situated between Marble and Crested Butte, Schofield Pass has a storied history of being one of Colorado's most dangerous and deadly mountain trails since its creation in 1873. Following a notorious narrow shelf road carved into the mountainside high above the Crystal River, this iconic, anxiety-inducing trail takes drivers through a dramatic alpine wilderness of towering peaks, cliffside dropoffs, cascading waterfalls, and crystal-clear streams. For those who can steady their nerves, Schofield Pass is an unforgettable journey, rich in natural splendor and adrenaline-fueled adventure.
