Ute Pass, Mountain pass in Teller County, Colorado, US.
Located west of Colorado Springs, Ute Pass rises to an elevation of 2,805 meters and extends for 24 kilometers between Florissant and Woodland Park.
Native American Ute tribes used this mountain passage for centuries as a route to escape summer heat and access hunting grounds in the Colorado mountains.
Nine interpretive panels along the Ute Pass Regional Trail present information about Ute traditions, local geology, and environmental management practices in the area.
The paved U.S. Highway 24 provides year-round access to vehicles traveling through the pass, connecting Colorado Springs to the mountain communities.
Local tradition encourages visitors to construct stone cairns at the interpretive loop, located three miles up from the Manitou Incline trailhead.
