The summit of Mount Sneffels is the highest point in Ouray County.[2][3][4] MountainMount Sneffels is notable for its great vertical relief, as it rises 7,200 feet above the town of Ridgway, Colorado 6 miles to the northeast. The primary route to the summit follows a creek bed up from Yankee Boy Basin. A secondary route follows a ridge line to the summit from the saddle of Blue Lakes Pass. Mount Sneffels was named after the volcano Snæfell, which is located on the tip of the Snæfellsnes peninsula in Iceland. That mountain and its glacier, Snæfellsjökull, which caps the crater like a convex lens, were featured in the Jules Verne novel A Journey to the Center of the Earth. An area on the western flank of Mount Sneffels gives the appearance of volcanic crater.{{Citation needed|date=September 2008}} Seen from the Dallas Divide on State Highway 62, Mount Sneffels is one of the most photographed mountains in Colorado.{{Citation needed|date=September 2008}} {{wide image|Sneffels range.jpg|1200px|Panorama of the Sneffels Range of the San Juan Mountains, photographed from Dallas Divide pass||none}}Historical names
