One of Colorado's most recent additions to wilderness areas, and no doubt you will get great mountain views. Likely less busy than wilderness areas like Eagles Nest and Indian Peaks. If you're here in the summer, you can explore the 17 mile trail system, and you'll probably come across huge clusters of wildflowers in the process.

The only restaurant at Devil's Thumb that you can eat at if you're not a guest. We went here for Valentine's day this year and I still think about the bread and wagyu beef from their own livestock.
