Published in cooperation with the Foundation for Colorado State Parks and Friends of the Natural Areas Program, this book is the first ever guide to our state's natural areas. Stunning full-color photographs throughout.
A guide to over 180 natural areas including parks, forests & wildlife preserves, and other public lands.
Since the passage of the Wilderness Act of 1964, Congress has designated 41 wilderness areas in Colorado, totaling some 3.4 million acres ranging from desert sagebrush to alpine crags. In addition, other undeveloped areas and national parklands have been proposed for wilderness status. In its newly revised second edition, The Complete Guide to Colorado's Wilderness Areas continues to serve as the foremost guide to these magnificent wild places.
This is a completely revised and updated edition of the first book to thoroughly explore Colorado's flourishing state parks system, from its stormy beginning in 1937 to the present. Containing scores of spectacular photographs, this unique guide provides a wealth of information on each of Colorado's forty state parks; its location and history; a general explanation of the site's flora, fauna, and geology; and the recreational activities available there, such as hiking, fishing, sailing, horseback riding, cross country skiing, and nature/wildlife photography.
