    COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing Fishing Report Regulations rd Friday October 23 , 2020 Review News and Information COVID -19 Response Below are some frequently asked questions we have been receiving from the public. Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers, hunters, and all other outdoor recreationists that it is your responsibility to research and understand the specific guidance, ordinances, and restrictions in place for any planned local recreation - know before you go. To see specific county health orders, visit: Colorado Counties Safer at Home Map. To see county fire restrictions, visit: Colorado Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management Fire Bans and Danger Page 2020 KOKANEE REGULATIONS AND 2020 KOKANEE GIVEAWAYS Colorado Parks and Wildlife has released the 2020 Kokanee Regulations and Kokanee Giveaway flyer. The handout includes information on fishing in Colorado and is not a legal notice or a complete collection of fishing regulations and laws. It is a condensed guide issued for anglers’ convenience. Copies of statutes and regulations can be obtained from a Colorado Parks and Wildlife office or as a PDF by clicking HERE. Lake Pueblo State Park implements winter hours for boat ramps and decontamination stations that guard against the invasion of zebra and quagga mussels “These seasonal hours mean boaters have less freedom to come and go at Lake Pueblo,” said Joe Stadterman, Lake Pueblo operations manager. “After ANS stations and gates are closed, the boat ramps are locked and no boats are able to enter or leave the water. “The strict control of access is necessary to continue to keep Lake Pueblo free of invasive zebra and quagga mussels.” CPW orders public fish salvage as extreme drought threatens a catastrophic die-off at Wahayoya Reservoir in Huerfano County Wahatoya Reservoir, a coldwater lake known for rainbow, brown and cutthroat trout, is in imminent danger of a catastrophic fish kill due to extremely low lake levels.

  • Fishing Report
    COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing ReportFishing Regulations Friday March 23rd, 2018 Review News and Information CPW accepts check for $29 million grant from U.S. Department of the Interior Colorado Parks and Wildlife Director Bob Broscheid on Tuesday, March 20, accepted a check for $29 million from the U.S. Department of Interior, declaring the funding “critical to CPW’s efforts for wildlife conservation, research, habitat preservation” as well as for supporting hunting and fishing programs. Invasive mussels knocking on Colorado's door prompts Highline Lake to revise boat ramp rules Beginning April 1, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will lock the boat ramp each evening at Highline Lake State Park, or when Aquatic Nuisance Species inspectors are not available. The new rule is in response to the growing threat posed to Colorado's water by the few boaters suspected of illegally launching their watercraft without the required aquatic nuisance species inspection. Anglers can provide input at two CPW 'State of the Fish" meetings in Summit, Grand counties In continuing efforts to engage the public in constructive conversations, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will hold two 'State of the Fish' gatherings in Summit and Grand County later this month. Agency biologists and managers will be available to answer questions about the current status of local fisheries, and future management plans. Go fish! 2018 fishing licenses are available now, valid beginning April 1 Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it's time to get ready for another season of fishing. Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase a 2018 annual fishing license now either online, at your local CPW office or at any of our hundreds of authorized sales agents statewide.

  • COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail
    CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL DAY & OVERNIGHT HIKES: COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail THE CENTENNIAL STATE The Colorado Rockies are the quintessential CDT experience! The CDT traverses 800 miles of these majestic and challenging peaks dotted with abandoned homesteads and ghost towns, and crosses the ancestral lands of the Ute, Eastern Shoshone, and Cheyenne peoples. The CDT winds through some of Colorado’s most incredible landscapes: the spectacular alpine tundra of the South San Juan, Weminuche, and La Garita Wildernesses where the CDT remains at or above 11,000 feet for nearly 70 miles; remnants of the late 1800’s ghost town of Hancock that served the Alpine Tunnel; the awe-inspiring Collegiate Peaks near Leadville, the highest incorporated city in America; geologic oddities like The Window, Knife Edge, and Devil’s Thumb; the towering 14,270 foot Grays Peak – the highest point on the CDT; Rocky Mountain National Park with its rugged snow-capped skyline; the remote Never Summer Wilderness; and the broad valleys and numerous glacial lakes and cirques of the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. You might also encounter moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, marmots, and pika on the CDT in Colorado. In this guide, you’ll find Colorado’s best day and overnight hikes on the CDT, organized south to north. ELEVATION: The average elevation of the CDT in Colorado is 10,978 ft, and all of the hikes listed in this guide begin at elevations above 8,000 ft. Remember to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and extra food, and know that a hike at elevation will likely be more challenging than the same distance hike at sea level.

MESA VERDE In the colorful northern Navajo country, overlooking the "four corners" where Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado meet, rises a forested flat-topped mountain which early Spanish explorers called Mesa Verde—the green tableland. Deep canyons countersunk into the heart of this wide plateau hide the deserted cliff cities of a remarkable stone age civilization that flourished here a thousand years ago. When the great ruins of Mesa Verde .were discovered in the late 80's and the early 90's, the story of the vanished race that lived in these spectacular ruins was shrouded in mystery. A large part of that mystery still exists—but now, bit by bit, archaeologists are piecing together fragments of information which reconstruct a picture of the ancient people. We know much about their physical appearance, their daily life and culture, and the events that led to abandoning their impregnable strongholds betw 1276 and 1295 A.D.-but that story will be told in detail by the ranger guides whelPyou visit Mesa Verde National Park. DESCRIPTIVE DETAILS This Mesa Verde portfolio has been prepared with a view to making each Climbing to Balcony House Ruin (Page 7) individual picture suitable for framing.
