Nature
Mount Owen rises to 13,070 feet in Colorado, making it the highest summit of the Ruby Range in the Rocky Mountains. It stands within Gunnison National Forest on the edge of the Raggeds Wilderness, about 8.5 miles west-northwest of Crested Butte. Its significance lies in its prominence as the top peak of its range and its setting within a protected high-mountain landscape.
