Harding Highway to Be the Highest in America

At Golden Colorado twelve miles west of Denver the Harding Memorial highway begins as a joint city county state and federal project. The first section includes Lariat Trail built by Denver officials, while the second from Bergen Park to Squaw Pass was built by the U S Forest Service and Colorado took over at Squaw Pass. Though the road will reach Mt Evans summit this season completion will take at least three more years as it links to highways on the far side. The route promises scenic beauty and may be the highest automobile road in America or the world with costs ranging from thirty to ten thousand dollars per mile depending on terrain.
