Overview

Georgia Pass is the middle and least busy of the three main passes over the Continental Divide in Summit County. While the southern slope is an easy dirt road, the north side offers a fun and thrilling offroad adventure, easy enough for first-time wheelers and exciting enough to get them hooked on the sport.

The trail summits in the saddle between Mount Guyot and Glacier Ridge, with spectacular views of the rugged Swan River Valley and the grassy plains of South Park. The notorious rock garden SOB Hill (a.k.a. Number 10 Road) ends at the summit. It's also a stop on the famous backpacking route, the Colorado Trail.
