Trail Overview

Most people start on the southern leg, about 5 miles south of Fairplay. Doing the loop, plus Lamb Mountain is 20 miles.The main loop of Browns and Breakneck Passes is mostly in the trees. There are groves of aspen on each end of the loop. The southern leg is extremely narrow, and there are long stretches where it is difficult to pass an oncoming vehicle.The western spur toward lamb Mountain rises into the tundra and affords a great view of Horseshoe Gulch. This is the most interesting part of the trail - do not miss it.

our trip was fun! I suggest that you drive the breakneck pass road to camp. we did not find any camping spots at the Browns Pass road. this is a very rocky area with steep hills, you will be engaged in 4Lo all the way on Browns Pass. there are many off shoots you can take. one is a huge loop around that takes you too peerless mine. there are 2 water crossings, one is easy on the right, the left water crossing, the water comes over your hood so don't be deceived. its a very nice area! I recommend it!
