Knife Edge stands as a prominent landmark along the boundary between the Rio Grande National Forest and San Juan National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the Continental Divide, where the headwaters of the Rio Grande begin their journey. The area is heavily marked by a network of historic paths, including the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Squaw Creek Trail, illustrating how early forest management and recreation shaped the accessibility of these peaks.
