    The Park is open for day use and camping. The Visitor Center drive through will be open from 8:30-4:00, as  staffing permits.

    • Staff will be answering phones and messages, so you may call 970-921-5721 if you have questions. 
    • You can use cpwshop.com to purchase annual park passes or use self-service for daily pass needs outside of Visitor Center hours.
    • Registrations can also be done on line, or if no attendant is available, we have a drop box on the south side of the building at the main Visitor Center doors.  You will need to pay by cash or check with the exact amount.  Just place your renewal information and payment in an envelope and put through the slot between the doors.

  • Trails

    ​Check out the new trail that attaches Iron Creek Campground to Clear Fork Campground! This new addition to our trail system allows you to walk from the Iron Creek Campground through the Clear Fork Campground to the Peninsula day-use area, all without having to be on the highway. 

    This new, safe trail also provides a story walk​ that starts at the Peninsula. The Crawford Library changes the book periodically, so bring your kids and read various children's books with your child as you enjoy a nature walk!
