U.S. Route 350
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
U.S. Route 350 is a northeast-southwest United States highway, signed as east-west. Though it is only 80 miles (129 km) long, and entirely within the state of Colorado, it is a vital corridor in the isolated region. Its history predates the 1926 creation of the numbered US highway system -- the route parallels part of the Mountain Branch of the historic Santa Fe Trail.
