Colorado River Headwaters Byway
Historic Ranchlands and State Wildlife Areas, CO
Out West flat areas surrounded by peaks are called parks, named by early French trappers. The Byway runs through Middle Park, settled in the late 1900s by ranchers who grazed livestock on the grasslands along river. The area still supports working ranches and provides habitat for many wild animal species. Hot Sulphur Springs State Wildlife Area is managed by the Colorado Division of Wildlife and includes 7 units which provide hunting, fishing, camping and wildlife watching.
The ranches that flank the Byway between Granby and Kremmling are visible year-round.
