RUSH FORCE TEN ascending Rollins Pass Continental Divide near Winter Park Colorado
One of 95 Continental Divide crossings to date!!! Have crossed at EVERY location in the USA on state issued maps, plus BANFF National Park in Canada, one extra in Montana, and one extra in Colorado :)))
Sorry for the glare, I'm not about to spend big bucks right now on A/V goodies, I just use rubber bands to attach my camera to the back of my rear view mirror, press record, and drive!!! If you are not satisfied, I will refund your purchase price and pay return shipping!!
Rollins Pass with Polaris RZR Part 3 Needle's Eye Tunnel
A quick sped up video of Rollins Pass road to the barricade then hike to the tunnel.
Surprisingly clear in the tunnel bore.
Needle's Eye was closed in 1979 following a small cave in. Re-opened in 1988 and then closed again by 1991 following debris falling and killing a worker in 1990.
If you're curious there are several websites that detail the re-opening, I liked this one:
As you can see, Boulder County is the hangup on re-opening the tunnel.

Rollins Pass - Moffat Tunnel
Rollins Pass was the first rail access over the Rocky Mountains. Taken on July 6, 2006 - this is as far up as we could get - Yankee Doodle lake where a large snowbank blocked access to Jenny Lake and the Needle's Eye Tunnel
Snowpack Conditions near Rollins Pass in the Front Range
Avalanche activity has tapered off since our last big storm. Avalanches are getting harder to trigger but they can still be large and dangerous if you find the wrong spot. The wrong spots are rocky areas and slopes with uneven snow coverage from wind-drifting and wind scouring. The most dangerous slopes are wind-loaded slopes near ridgetop that face a northerly or east direction.

Stillwater Pass Dispersed Camping Colorado
Please watch: RIU Palace Bavaro Hotel Review and Family Vacation
--~--
Dispersed camping at Stillwater Pass near Lake Granby was the perfect mountain getaway. Close to Denver but it felt like a thousand miles away. The forest service roads were generally in pretty decent shape, but we struggled to find a camping spot on the main road. Eventually, after a few miles of searching, we found the perfect primitive camping spot and short of a few off-road atvs, we rarely saw another camper. This was national forest camping at its best and don't miss an opportunity to make a day trip to the town of Grand Lake, you won't regret it!
