Parks Ranger District

The Parks Ranger District is nestled into the Northwest Central Mountains of Colorado, bordered on the north by Wyoming, the Medicine Bow Mountains and the Rawah Wilderness on the east, the Zirkel Wilderness on the west, and the Park and Rabbit Ears ranges to the south (also known as the Troublesome Area). These National Forest lands encircle what is known as "North Park," an open, sagebrush upland of 40 square miles. It is one of three parks in Colorado, joining "Middle Park" and "South Park"…
