Hermit Pass - Sangre de Cristo Mountains - Near Westcliffe, CO

We drove a stock 2003 Toyota Tacoma and stock 2001 1st Gen Xterra up Hermit Pass. We thought it was an "easy" trail according to the guide but it was pretty rocky and high clearance is suggested. I would rate this trail as "Moderate" due to the clearance needed. The views are beautiful with a lake just before you get to the top of the pass. The pass is close to Westcliffe, CO, which is a cool little ranching town with just a few stop signs and some good restaurants.

This is like an interstate highway compared to when we crossed it in 1987.

LOL! Hayden Pass is more challenging, I hit that earlier this summer and it had challenging, steep, loose rock sections.
