Hill features

At 14,036' Mount Sherman is the 45th highest peak in Colorado. Situated in the Mosquito Range, it lies roughly midway between the cities of Fairplay and Leadville. Although visible from both sides of this north-south running range, Mount Sherman is not easily identified. Gentle ridges run both directions from its broad summit to peaks nearly as high, making it easy to mistake Sherman for one of its neighbours.

While the gentle nature of Sherman makes it hard to identify, it also makes it a relatively easy peak to climb. Over the years it has developed a reputation for being one of the easiest 14ers to climb. As such, it is a very popular first 14er for those who wish to take their hiking to new heights.
