Mount Rose visible to the left
Mount Rose Summit is a
mountain pass located in the
Carson Range near
Mount Rose and
Slide Mountain, northeast of
Incline Village,
Nevada, United States.[1][2] The 8,911-foot-high (2,716 m) pass is traversed by
State Route 431, which is the highest point of the highway and the highest mountain pass in the
Sierra Nevada that remains open year-round.[1][3] The saddle itself features a parking lot and a small building which both serve as a highway stop. A closed dirt road leading to the
Mount Rose Ski Resort ends near the northern section of the summit.[1] The pass is the low point of the saddle between Slide Mountain and
Tamarack Peak.
