Americans Fear These 5 Colorado Highways More Than Most
Is there a road or highway in Colorado that you avoid? What about roads or highways in Colorado that you avoid when there is ice and snow on the ground?
I believe that many Colorado drivers have two separate routes on their daily commute. The quick way, and the safest when road conditions are not ideal.
Have you ever wondered which Colorado roads and highways are the most feared? If so, you have come to the right place.

This Is Colorado's Most Feared Road
Monarch Pass was rated Colorado's most feared road. On the national ranking, Monarch Pass was ranked as the 19th most feared road in the nation.
A large stretch of Monarch Pass is totally doable. However, the stretch of road turns into a narrow dirt road. Monarch Pass is not always open to motorists.
I have not been yet, but I plan to during the summer months when the conditions are clear.
It looks like fun. Plus, we all need an adrenaline rush every once in a while. Many believe that Monarch Pass is cursed, which adds to the danger.
