Description

Beaver Creek and its tributaries on the south slopes of the Pikes Peak massif carve deeply incised granite canyons with tumbling cascades, waterfalls, and calm pools. The area forms a crucial ecological link between the alpine high country of Pikes Peak and the arid rangelands of the high plains outside Colorado Springs. It’s streams and canyons offer year-round opportunities for hiking and backpacking, fishing and hunting, nature study, and rock climbing.
