Mountain Highway Crashes in Larimer County
Highway 34 leading into Estes Park is a scenic but high-risk route, particularly in the late afternoon when traffic increases and sun glare can affect visibility. Winding roads, blind curves, and varying speed limits make this stretch of highway a common location for injury crashes—especially when driver attention lapses or roadway conditions change suddenly.
Injury accidents on mountain highways often involve sudden braking, lane departures, or collisions with roadside barriers. Given the limited shoulder space and high-speed zones in areas like West Highway 34, even moderate-impact collisions can result in serious injuries.
