Breckenridge to Hoosier Pass
Breckenridge to Hoosier Pass
The distance is approximately 11 miles to the top of Hoosier pass. This ride shares the road with cars up a switch back pass, so use caution, especially on the downhill when bikes can reach speeds faster than cars. Starting at the South end of Breckenridge, continue heading south on Hwy 9 towards Blue River. On the left side of the road you will see a small lake and cabins tucked away in the woods. This flat road continues past the entrance to the Quandary Trail head. Climbing begins with steep switchbacks around small streams flowing along side the road. Views of the mountains can be seen from every direction and the mountain floral is usually spectacular in the summer. Once at the top the mountains of Lincoln, Democrat, and Bross are seen looking over toward Alma. Congratulate yourself for a great climb all the way to 11,541 feet!
