Grays Peak quick facts:
- Named by Charles Parry, a botanist who was the first to ascend the peak, for his friend and fellow botanist Asa Gray. Gray didn't see the mountain until eleven years after it was named.
- Grays Peak is the 10th highest peak in the Rocky Mountains and the tallest point on the Continental Divide.
- Summit: 14,278 feet
- Usually climbed in conjunction with Torreys Peak, 3/4 of a mile on the trail before it.
- Since it is usually referenced with Torreys Peak, the peaks were called the Twins by early miners and The Ant Hills by local Native Americans.
- The primary trail is a short continuation of the trail up from Torreys Peak which makes it a relatively easy hike and one of the easiest ways to do a "two-fer" in one day.
