Hunting and Fishing
Truly an outdoorsman's paradise, southern Colorado is
renowned for its trophy elk, deer, and antelope. Its numerous lakes teem with fish of every species native to the region.
With an abundance of pristine mountain wilderness, state parks, national forest land, and private hunting retreats, the sportsman has no shortage of options in planning his ultimate outdoor adventure.
Please visit our friends at Trujillo Creek Outfitters to learn more about hunting and fishing opportunities in our spectacular area. And at the end of an active, appetite-inspiring day in the forests and mountains, what could be more satisfying than a great dinner at Black Jack's Steakhouse, followed by a restful night's sleep at the Inn?
To learn more about Colorado's wildlife, including information about hunting and fishing regulations, fees, and licensing, visit the Colorado Division of Wildlife.
Happy hunting!
