Alpine Loop
Cinnamon Pass, CO

Visitors will notice that the climate at the top of Cinnamon Pass resembles that of a tundra, with the harsh climate making it hard for grasses and flowers to grow. The growing season is short and the environment is fragile atop this 12,620 ft. pass. From the pass, Handies, Redcloud, and Sunshine Peak can all be seen. All three of these peaks soar to heights just over 14,000 ft.
