Niagara Peak, Mountain summit in San Juan Mountains, Colorado, US
Niagara Peak rises to 13,812 feet within the San Juan Mountains range, featuring steep rocky slopes and a triangular summit formation.
The mountain formation resulted from extensive volcanic activity and glacial erosion processes that shaped the current landscape of the San Juan range.
Mountain climbers maintain detailed records of ascents in the summit registry, contributing to the documentation of climbing patterns in Colorado peaks.
The Burns Gulch trailhead starts at 10,740 feet elevation, requiring a high-clearance vehicle to access through County Road 2 from Silverton.
The peak presents a 5.3-mile round trip with 3,555 feet elevation gain, offering connections to American Peak and Jones Mountain through the NE Ridge.
