Overview

A quintessential Colorado experience complete with pine trees, sage, a meandering stream, cattle, bears, bare mountain peaks, and excellent camping. Texas Creek is a beautiful trip in the Gunnison National Forest, delivering you to the footstep of the Collegiate Peak Wilderness Area that includes Mount Yale, Birthday Peak, and hiking trails accessing the Continental Divide and high plenty of alpine lakes. Pack the camping gear, chairs, and camera for this beautiful drive into the more seldom seen views of the west side of the Collegiate Peaks.
