Hiking
Sand Mountain is the highest peak in the Elkhead Mountains. The Elkhead Mountains are a remote range of mountains with relatively low peaks compared to other Colorado mountain ranges. The range's remoteness makes for an incredible solitary and backcountry hiking adventure. Sand Mountain stands tall at 10,869 ft (3,313 m).
