Elevation:
Directions: Take US 24 to the town of Divide; turn left (south) on CO 67 and head approximately 5.75 miles to the Fourmile Road turnoff (which is not clearly marked). Pass a fish hatchery on your left as you head approximately 2 miles to a Division of Wildlife sign indicating Dome Rock. Head down a steep hill to the parking area.
