With some of the most beautiful mountains in the world, opportunites
for outdoor adventure in Colorado abound. The state's natural
beauty is becoming better protected with over 40 State Parks,
6 Federal Parks, a myriad of Federal Wilderness areas, a host Bureau
of Land Management land, and 13 National Forests and Grasslands.
The total acreage of these sites is almost one third of the state,
the government owns roughly 45% of the state's land. In Colorado
the Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife
Service, and the National Park Service managed 23,455,115 acres
in 1994. Since then there have been two new Wilderness Acts
that have increased that number.
These sites are to the public, but have rules a regulations
governing each. For instance you are allowed to camp only in designated
spots for campgrounds in Rocky Mountain National Park.
Several of the large lakes and reservoirs also fall into the
boundaries of these sites.
See Sections above for more specific information.
