The Flat Tops Mountain Range may be one of the least explored regions in the state, although there is no shortage of spectacular landmarks or sights to see. Between the lush valleys, flowing rivers, and mountainous passes, this 82-mile byway is packed to the brim with natural beauty. You will likely start your adventure in Yampa before crossing over the Ripple Creek Pass. From here, you will be able to marvel at both the White River Valley and Flat Tops Wilderness Area from the overlook. Continue your drive until you come to Trappers Lake, a postcard-worthy stop where you can go hiking, fishing, or camping.
