Review & FAQ:

Boreas Pass is a high mountain pass in the Rocky Mountains situated 11,481 feet above sea level along the Continental Divide. The pass was historically known as the Breckenridge Pass and served as a route for prospectors who crossed into the area during Colorado's gold rush. The pass was later used as a wagon and narrow-gauge railroad pass and exists today as a seasonal scenic drive. Visitors can see the remains of the Boreas Station that once resided at the top of the pass. The pass is popular among mountain bikers and the Section House is often used as a base for winter sports enthusiasts.
