Otis Peak
Otis Peak is a mountain summit on the boundary shared by Grand County and Larimer County, in Colorado, United States. Description Otis Peak is set along the Continental Divide in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. The mountain is situated within Rocky Mountain National Park and southwest of Estes Park.
