Mueller State Park
Mueller State Park offers the visitor many fine examples of Colorado’s middle montane habitats. This is a good place to come looking for sapsuckers (both Williamson’s and Red-naped), not to mention Dusky Grouse, which requires some luck to find. Deer and elk can be found in the park also, and pine squirrels are numerous; a lucky few might see bear, mink or porcupine. Many hiking trails allow access to the different habitats.
