Cross-Country Route 40 Bike Trip - Day 14: Kremmling to Idaho Springs, Colorado

 

Distance: 82.0 miles
Description: This is probably the toughest day of the entire Route 40 cross-country trek. The first 60 miles cover a rather brutal ascent of more than 4,000 feet in elevation. Once you reach the summit of Berthoud Pass (the highest point on all of Route 40), you will rapidly descent about 4,000 feet in about 20 miles.
