Pagosa Peak

Pagosa Peak, elevation 12,658 feet (3,858 meters), is a summit in the San Juan Mountains in Mineral County, Colorado, north of Pagosa Springs.

[1] The mountain lies in the Weminuche Wilderness and the San Juan National Forest.

The climb to the top of the peak is difficult, as is accessing the trailhead, especially in a two-wheel drive vehicle.

The unsigned trail is about four miles (6.4 kilometers) long with an elevation gain of around 2,500 feet (760 meters).

The trail is steep, navigation is difficult, and a false summit may cause confusion.
