St Forest Bull Moose
The ultimate in rugged Colorado, State Forest State Park offers visitors 71,000 acres of forest, jagged peaks, alpine lakes, wildlife and miles of trails.  The park stretches along the west side of the Medicine Bow Mountains and into the north end of the Never Summer Range. 

Moose is our claim to fame.  North Park is considered the moose viewing capital of Colorado, with over 600 moose to be observed year-round.
The State Forest State Park has something for everyone in every season.  With so much room and diversity, visitors can experience a bountiful array of outdoor recreational favorites such as camping, hiking, four-wheeling, horseback riding, skiing, snowshoeing, telemarking, snowboarding, snowmobiling, fishing, hunting, birding, wildlife viewing and geocaching.
Visit Division of Wildlifes web site for detailed reports.
