FISHING - If you want to venture out from your secluded piece of the Rio Grande River, where you can hook up daily on monster Rainbow and Brown trout, the Upper Rio Grande has some of the best fishing in Colorado. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife have designated nearly 20 miles of the Rio Grande River as Gold Medal Waters, which is the longest stretch found in the entire state. South Fork offers the ultimate recreation with not only some of the best fishing but is right by the best snow in Colorado. Wolf Creek pass is a short 30-minute drive where you can hit the slopes during the winter season and soak up more powder then Aspen. The property offers a great building site for you to build your dream home with picturesque views of the snow-capped mountains and the Rio Grande National Forest.

HUNTING - Located in GMU 79, the small town of South Fork is surrounded by nearly two million acres of National Forest. With both big and small game, and over-the-counter licenses for many species, it is a hunter's paradise.

OTHER RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES - If you like to downhill ski, the ski resort at Wolf Creek, only 30 minutes away, offers some of the best snow in Colorado. Summer provides miles upon miles of trails for ATV's, dirt bikes, mountain biking, horseback riding, or just taking long, leisurely hikes.
