Colorado CO Loveland Pass Summit Arapaho National Forest Vintage Postcard

Description: Colorado CO Loveland Pass Summit Arapaho National Forest Vintage Postcard. Loveland Pass is a high mountain pass in north-central Colorado, at an elevation of 11,990 feet (3,655 m) above sea level in the Rocky Mountains. It is located on the Continental Divide in the Front Range, west of Denver on U.S. Highway 6 (US 6). The twisty road is considered to be especially treacherous during the winter months. A steep, steady 6.7% grade, along with numerous hairpin turns on either side, make it difficult to snowplow the road regularly. Loveland Pass is along the Continental Divide, about 70 miles east of Denver. It’s the last exit before the Eisenhower Tunnel in either direction on I-70. Trucks carrying hazardous materials or those that can’t fit through the Eisenhower Tunnel use Loveland Pass as an alternate route. It’s also a scenic route that many people take for the surrounding mountain views. H. S.
