Mount Lincoln, Mountain summit in Park County, Colorado, US
Mount Lincoln rises to an elevation of 4,354 meters, making it the eighth-highest peak in the Rocky Mountains of North America.
The mountain received its name in 1861 to honor Abraham Lincoln, and silver discoveries in 1874 transformed the area into a mining center.
The peak forms part of the Collegiate Peaks in the Sawatch Range, creating opportunities for mountaineers to study local geological formations.
Climbers can access the mountain through Kite Lake Trailhead, with a parking area available for $3 during summer months.
The summit marks the highest point in the Missouri River drainage basin and provides views of neighboring peaks Mount Bross and Mount Cameron.
