Keefe Peak is a 13,532-foot mountain in Colorado’s Elk Mountains, southwest of Aspen in the Maroon Bells–Snowmass Wilderness of White River National Forest. Known for its dramatic local relief, it rises roughly 3,000 feet above Conundrum Creek in just 1.1 miles and about 2,900 feet above East Maroon Creek in 1.6 miles, with runoff feeding tributaries of the Roaring Fork River in the Colorado River system. Colorado’s 238th-highest peak, it was named for Lieutenant Thomas Victor Keefe, a former U.S. Forest Service employee and deputy forest supervisor here who died in U.S. Army service in 1918; federal authorities adopted the name in 1925 and revised it in 1927.
