Trivia
Though it's located in the Great Plains state of South Dakota, Harney Peak, the third summit scaled in the film, is taller than any mountain in the central and eastern United States. At 7,244 feet above sea level, It's actually the highest peak between North America's Rocky Mountains and Europe's Pyrenees range.

Goofs
When Robert ("The Saboteur") supposedly wanders through a convenience store in Lamar, Colorado, he is actually checking out tools in a gas station in Worthington, Minnesota.
