Badger Mountain, Mountain summit in Pike National Forest, Colorado, United States.
Badger Mountain rises to an elevation of 11,295 feet within the South Park Hills of the Rocky Mountains, featuring dense forest and communications towers.
The mountain received its name from John Badger, a veteran who served in both the Civil War and Mexican-American War during the 1800s.
The summit area contains a USGS marker and a metal drawer secured by chain, representing traditional American mountaineering documentation practices.
Visitors can access the summit through Badger Mountain Road or take a steep trail starting near the Wilkerson Pass visitor center.
The mountain's location at the edge of Lost Creek Wilderness provides clear views of South Park and the Tarryall Mountains from various points.
