It is located west of Georgetown along the Continental Divide and along the boundary between Clear Creek and Summit counties. The ridge of the range is traversed by Argentine Pass just to the north. Argentine Peak is one of over 600 thirteeners (peaks between 13,000 and 13,999 feet in elevation) in the state, and is ranked as the 131st highest peak in Colorado by the most detailed count.[3]
