Nestled between two of Colorado’s largest wilderness regions, the outdoor recreation opportunities abound in the North Fork Valley. The North Fork of the Gunnison River offers world-class fly fishing, rafting and SUPing. Hike and mountain bike Jumbo Mountain or Needle Rock if you want to stay in the Valley or head up to Kebler Pass or the Grand Mesa for mountainous forests and alpine lake vibes. In the winter, the Grand Mesa turns into a winter wonderland with some of North America’s best crosscountry skiing.
