Ok, this is my favorite local hike. Great views and in the 70's the property had a recording studio where Rolling Stones, Elton John, and Crosby Still Nash and Young, Michael Jackson, Billy Joel and John Lennon, to name a few, recorded albums. It burnt down but has been rebuilt and now is housing for artist in residence. Lots of history and a really beautiful location. Kind of a newer open space so not as discovered as other spots....

In the shadow of the Continental Divide, Caribou Ranch offers a variety of landscapes for you to explore including forests, meadows, wetlands, and a historical mining complex. The park is closed annually from April 1 through June 30 to protect spring migratory birds and elk calving and rearing.

Mountain Bike, Hike, Off road, cross country ski, snow shoe, sled! Depending upon the season this is a locals favorite. Be aware that in the winter months ( November thru June) this may be a 4x4 only drive due to snow. Our summer here does not start until July. IF you are up for a mountain bike adventure, You can rent a fat tire bike at Salto in Nederland ride up Caribou road from town.
