A trip to Boulder Park Campground
Worth a stop
The High Park Lookout is located just east of Meadowlark Lake. This old fire lookout was built by the CCC decades ago and is no longer active. A short hike leads to the lookout, where hikers are awarded panoramic views of the surrounding area. Deer Haven Lodge and Meadowlark Lodge are nearby, offering dining options, lodging, guided horseback riding and fishing and camping supplies.

Recreation
Off-road vehicle trails, scenic jeep roads, hiking and additional fishing streams are available in the surrounding area.
