Fletcher Mountain is a 13,958-foot peak in central Colorado’s Tenmile Range, within the Rocky Mountains and Arapaho National Forest, rising above the upper Blue River country southwest of Breckenridge. Its elevation places it in an alpine subarctic climate, with cold snowy winters, cool to warm summers, year-round precipitation, winter snowfall, summer thunderstorms, and a drier period in late spring. As one of Colorado’s “thirteeners,” it exceeds 13,000 feet but remains below 14,000. Its height, location, and closeness to Breckenridge make it part of one of the state’s best-known high-elevation landscapes.
