The road was built by Otto Mears, from Saguache to Lake City, 'bout 70 miles. You can still drive 70% of the original grade. A couple of the stage stops are partially intact and this point is called Indianhead.
Road is on other side of the valley, crossing the lower nob hill on the right. Indianhead hill is next to it and the profile photo would have been what the passenger saw as they rolled by.
