Fancy Pass

Located in the southern end of the Holy Cross Wilderness Area, the hike over Fancy Pass accesses some wonderful mountain terrain as well as a handful of pristine alpine lakes. Adding both miles and interest to this trip is a continuation of the route over nearby Missouri Pass. The end result is a 8-mile loop trip that connects two nearby trailheads.
