Where is a good place to view wildlife on the Eagle District of the White River NF?

0

The Colorado Wildlife Viewing Guide lists Yeoman Park as a good place to view an extensive beaver colony. Many tree and ground squirrels also live in the area. Birds of prey, such as the red-tailed hawk, can be seen, as well as the occasional bald eagle. Mule deer can be observed in the early morning and evening hours. Many opportunities to view wildlife are available on most of the hiking trails on the Eagle Ranger District. In Glenwood Canyon, No Name and Grizzly Creek Trails are home to an abundance of wildlife including porcupine, bighorn sheep, and numerous songbirds. Along the Sweetwater and Turrett Creek Trails, elk, black bear, coyotes and pocket gophers can sometimes be spotted. Turrett Creek is also home to grouse, ermine and mink. Herds of deer and elk can frequently be seen along the rim of Deep Creek Canyon. For more information and detailed directions, please contact the district office.
