Colorado National Forests - San Juan National Forest

San Juan National Forest is located in southwestern Colorado on the western slope of the Continental Divide. It covers an area from east to west of more than 120 miles and from north to south more than 60 miles, encompassing an area of 1,869,931 acres.

The area mountains have short, cool summers and long, severe winters. The lower elevations experience a more temperate winter. There are several permanent snow fields, and snow patches remain in sheltered areas throughout the summer. You should be prepared for freezing weather at all times of the year as a summer storm can instantly turn the warm day you were enjoying into a blizzard.

A host of campgrounds and picnic sites are scattered throughout this National Forest. Reservations are available through the rangers offices. Skiers are attracted to Purgatory Ski Area about a half hour north of Durango. Fly fishing for trout in high mountain lakes, swift streams or reservoirs such as McPhee, Vallecito, Lemon and Williams Creek Lake are popular as well. Hunters stalk mule deer, elk, bear, bighorn sheep, mountain lion, grouse, turkey and ducks in the region.
