Torreys Peak, Mountain summit at Colorado Front Range, United States

Torreys Peak is a 4,349-meter summit in the Rocky Mountains along the Continental Divide, characterized by steep slopes and exposed rocky terrain. The mountain features sharp ridgelines and requires scrambling skills on technical sections near the top.

Charles C. Parry completed the first recorded ascent in 1861 and named the peak after botanist John Torrey. The naming honored Torrey's contributions to understanding the plant life of Colorado's mountain regions.

In the Arapaho language Torreys Peak and the neighbouring Grays Peak are together called Heeniiyoowuu, "Ant Hills". The name was recorded for the pair rather than for Torreys alone, so the two summits share one Arapaho designation. Hikers on the standard route pass the saddle linking the two peaks without meeting any marker of that name.

The main route follows Grays Peak Trail from Stevens Gulch, while an alternative begins at Loveland Pass accessible via I-70 from Denver. Both paths require solid fitness and experience with high-altitude mountain conditions.

This peak connects to adjacent Grays Peak through a high-altitude saddle, allowing climbers to reach both summits during a single expedition. The combination climb is especially popular in summer and provides an efficient way to bag two major peaks.
