I wish the weather was perfect every time I reached the top of a high ridge. As is typical around noon, clouds were building fast here at the top of Argentine Pass on July 1. I didn't stick around long. The panorama was shot at 13,484 feet, just north of the pass. At about 13,200 feet, Argentine Pass is the highest named pass over the Continental Divide. You can reach the pass from the east via Leavenworth Road, a steep four wheel drive track. Or, reach it from the west as I did (only on foot). Argentine Trail begins in Horseshoe Basin near the end of Peru Creek Road. Notable high mountains nearby are Grays Peak and Torreys Peak to the northwest; Mt. Evans and Mt. Beirstadt to the southeast.
