Badger Mountain

Nature
Badger Mountain is an 11,295-foot summit in the South Park Hills of central Colorado's Rocky Mountains, within Pike National Forest northwest of Lake George. Rising above the approach to South Park, it is regarded as the most prominent peak in the Puma Hills area and overlooks Wilkerson Pass. Its position along the edge of the Lost Creek Wilderness places it near one of the region's better-known protected backcountry landscapes. Unlike many summits of comparable elevation, Badger Mountain is accessible by motor vehicle via Badger Mountain Road, which leads to the top.
