For centuries, numerous passes over the Continental Divide allowed people to enter or leave what is now Summit County: Ute Pass in the Williams Fork Range, Loveland Pass, Argentine Pass -formerly known as Sanderson’s Pass and Snake River Pass, Grizzley Pass, Webster Pass - formerly known as Hand Cart Pass, Georgia Pass - formerly called Swan River Pass, French Pass, Hoosier Pass - formerly called Ute Pass, Fremont Pass, Shrine Pass, Vail Pass-----and Breckenridge Pass. Breckenridge Pass? Where was Breckenridge Pass? Was it originally Hamilton Pass as some have said? Or is it a separate pass with an unknown location? Could it be the original name of Boreas Pass?
