 rollins pass and the moffat tunnel
David Moffat, a prominent Denver banker who had made his fortune in the gold fields of Florence and Cripple Creek, established the Denver Northwestern Railroad.
Moffat's plan was to build a long tunnel through the mountains...but because of the lack of financing a temporary rail bed was laid over Rollins Pass after cutting 30 plus smaller tunnels west of Moffat Station in Denver.
Crossing Rollins Pass could be a risky proposition in the winter months due to avalanches and heavy snow drifts.
