Explore Southern Colorado
Ruggedly beautiful Colorado offers limitless ways to enjoy the outdoors – hiking, rafting, fishing, biking, ATV trails, geocaching, bird watching, wildlife photography, and golf. Visit the museums, discover the thousand-year-old culture of the Ute people, shop for souvenirs, and try all the restaurants. The Silver Thread Byway is overflowing with exciting ways to make memories.
Gold Medal Trout Fishing
There are countless lakes, streams, and rivers in Colorado offering camping sites with superior fishing, but only 322 miles of trout streams in the entire state have been designated by the Colorado Wildlife Commission as Gold Medal waterways because they offer great spots to catch really large trout. The Rio Grande River runs right beside Silver Thread Basecamp and has earned that distinction. Bring your fishing tackle!
