Gill Creek Divide |
Gill Creek Divide - Mesa County - Colorado - 8,438 feet
West Creek to north. Gill Creek to south.
From Whitewater, about 15 miles southwest on CO-141, then about 10 miles southwest on Divide Rd and FR-413 or FR-417.
On a rocky, dirty and sandy road that requires a bit of skills when wet. - dual sport
The Divide is mostly a flat area so the actual location of a summit is unclear.
On both the Colorado Road & Recreation Atlas and the Colorado Atlas & Gazetteer,
Gill Creek Divide is shown as a long arch instead of a point.
On the Garmin topo map, Gill Creek Divide is shown as a point 0.88 miles northeast of 38 45 35N 108 39 35W
where the photos were taken on FR-413 at the gate for Forest Trail 665 to Hungry Gulch.
