Description
Bowen Mountain is the seventh-highest peak of the Never Summer Mountains which are a subrange of the Rocky Mountains.[1] The mountain is set in the Never Summer Wilderness on land managed by Arapaho National Forest. It is situated along the Continental Divide with the summit offset by approximately one-half mile. Precipitation runoff from the mountain's slopes drains chiefly into the Colorado River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises Шаблон:Convert above the Kawuneeche Valley in Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert above Bowen Gulch in Шаблон:Convert.
Etymology
The mountain was named for James H. Bourn, a prospector in this area whose name was misunderstood by a county clerk.[2] Bourn and Alexander Campbell staked a claim on the southern end of Bowen Mountain on July 10, 1875, and called it Wolverine Mine.[3] The mountain's toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.[4]
Climate
According to the Köppen climate classification system, Bowen Mountain is located in an alpine subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and cool to warm summers.[5] Due to its altitude, it receives precipitation all year, as snow in winter, and as thunderstorms in summer, with a dry period in late spring.
