Kit Carson Mountain or Kit Carson Peak (4 318m /14 165ft), is one of the 54 fourteeners in the state of Colorado and lies in the Sangre de Cristo Range near Crestone Peak and Crestone Needle. The peak is named after the frontiersman Kit Carson. Most of the mountain was privately owned and part of the Baca Ranch, but was purchased along with the rest of the Baca Ranch to expand the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve in 2004.
