In 1975, Congress combined the San Juan and Upper Rio Grande primitive areas into the Wilderness area. With an average elevation of 10,000 ft., it is the highest wilderness area in the nation. More than 80 miles of the Continental Divide passes through the Weminuche Wilderness.
Three of Colorado's 54 Fourteeners are located in the Wilderness: Mt. Eolis (14,083 ft), Sunlight Peak (14,059 ft), and Windom Peak (14,082 ft). In addition, there are 81 high mountain lakes.
