Drive south 5 miles from Poncha Springs on U.S. 285 and then head west to Marshall Pass and O&#8217;Haver Lake\u00a0 (County Roads 200\/202). The side trip to O&#8217;Haver Lake is 3 miles up the road. After the side trip, go on up to the top of the pass and down the other side. You will end up in Sargents Colorado on U.S. 50. The total trip over Marshall Pass with a stop at O&#8217;Haver Lake is 32 miles.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_25582\" style=\"width: 543px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/190927-Marshall-Pass-Colorado-5D3-3595-w8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25582\" class=\"wp-image-25582 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/190927-Marshall-Pass-Colorado-5D3-3595-w8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-25582\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marshall Pass, Colorado<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Fall colors reports this morning (Oct 2) indicate there are still great colors all over the mountainsides of southern Colorado and the colors should last several more days to a week.\u00a0 Go now.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_25583\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/150729-marshall-pass-road.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25583\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/150729-marshall-pass-road.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/150729-marshall-pass-road.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/150729-marshall-pass-road-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/150729-marshall-pass-road-500x260.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-25583\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Map, Marshall Pass, Colorado.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A guide to my Marshall Pass\/O&#8217;Haver Lake trip is at the first link below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=35367\">Fall Color Photography Guide to Marshall Pass and O&#8217;Haver Lake, Colorado<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=35334\">Colorado Fall Color and Photography Guide &#8211; 2024<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is not too late too catch the spectacular fall colors in Southwest Colorado.
