Stewart Peak, elevation 13,983 ft (4,262 m), is a summit inColorado. The peak is the second highestthirteener (a peak between 13,000 and 13,999 feet in elevation) in the state. It is located in theLa Garita Mountains, sub-range of theSan Juan Mountains, inSaguache County, within theLa Garita Wilderness. Stewart Peak is the 55th highest peak in Colorado by most standard definitions, just missing thelist of Colorado fourteeners.[5] At one time, the peak's elevation was measured to be over 14,000 ft and it was believed to be afourteener, but more recent and accurate surveys have dropped it below that threshold.
