Bald Mountain is ahigh andprominentmountainsummit in theFront Range of theRocky Mountains ofNorth America. The 13,690-foot (4,173 m)thirteener is located inArapaho National Forest, 5.5 miles (8.9 km) southeast (bearing 135°) of theTown of Breckenridge inSummit County,Colorado,United States.[1][2][3]
It may be reached by a technically-undemanding though long and roundabout route from Breckenridge, initially through forest and then open country; though as for all mountains of this elevation,altitude sickness is a potential danger as well as afternoonthunderstorms.
Extensive views of the surrounding area may be enjoyed from the summit on a clear day.
