Gemini Peak

Mountain in the American state of Colorado From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gemini Peak is a summit in the Mosquito Range of the Rocky Mountains of North America. The 13,958-foot (4,254 m) mountain is located 0.68 miles (1.1 km) north northeast of Mount Sherman, on the drainage divide separating Lake County from Park County.[1][2][3] Gemini Peak is appropriately named considering the mountain has two distinct summits and that the Latin word Gemini means "twins."[4] The northeast summit is slightly higher than its southwest "twin."
