Rollins Pass - (Images of America) by B Travis Wright Mps & Kate Wright Mba (Paperback)

The Rollins Pass Road is a historic and scenic route that has been in continuous use for millennia, first as a Native American game drive complex and later as a toll wagon road and standard-gauge railroad grade.

Despite its impressive history, the original route was deemed unsafe and inefficient due to high elevations and risks of injury or death.

However, a safer, permanent route was established in 1928 with the construction of the Moffat Tunnel, which removed the rails and opened the road to automobile tourism.

Today, the Rollins Pass Road remains a preeminent scenic route to the top of the world, offering breathtaking views and an unparalleled glimpse into history.
