Wolf Creek Pass carries US-160 over the San Juan Mountains at 10,857 ft. Here's what to watch, and when it bites.
Wolf Creek Pass gets more snow than almost any other Colorado highway pass, and CDOT closes US-160 here for avalanche control and storms several times most winters. The west side drops steeply toward Pagosa Springs with sharp curves, and the chain law is common in a storm.
The Wolf Creek Ski Area entrance is right at the summit, so weekend ski traffic and freight share the top of the pass. CDOT's cameras at the summit aren't in MileCheck's feed yet, so the map shows alerts, snow and plows.
The live map above shows closures and incidents on US-160 near the summit, from CDOT. See the Colorado road conditions map.
CDOT sets the traction and chain law on US-160 and posts it on signs and COtrip. It changes quickly in a storm.
