Trip over Boreas Pass (between Como and Breckenridge, Colorado) and Mosquito Pass (Alma to Leadville).
Narrow road, a shelf road in some places. The road over Boreas Pass was the 19th century rail road grade.
A few rocks, very narrow in the rail road cuts. Boreas Pass is not challenging in good weather; snow can make it very challenging. Mosquito Pass scares the you know what out of a lot of people, very narrow in spots. Big rocks and some big holes all up the east side. Very steep climb. Not technically challenging but bring your A game or you will break something.
Mosquito Pass is almost all above tree line, so snow is possible year round. It can be very difficult in snow.
Incredible views.
