Indipendence Pass
translate
E' il secondo passo più alto del Colorado, a 3686 metri s.l.m., e divide la valle del fiume Roaring Fork da Aspen. Il passo è attraversato dalla Highway 82.
Il passo è ben al di sopra il limite delle vegetazione degli alberi, tecnicamente in cima al passo ci ritroviamo in una specie di tundra.
La circolazione per i veicoli pesanti è vietata ed il passo è sempre chiuso in inverno.
