My best guess from looking at the maps on LOJ is PT 10100 outside of the Springs: (104.9227°W)

I checked the maps of Wyoming and New Mexico as well and couldn't find anything east of 105°W in either state, so I think this one is it. MT doesn't get this high until much farther west.

Hmm, I guess it would be. It was deceiving on the map, I had the 12er map up and it looked farther west than the Almagres so I never clicked it to check!
