Tomahawk State Wildlife Area
Just upstream of Hartsel, this area provides a stunning backdrop for anglers to enjoy. Shrubs and brush line the banks of the meandering stream, while brilliantly colored rock outcroppings force the stream to curve and meander through beaver ponds and beautiful pools. Rainbows, browns and an occasional cutthroat trout inhabit this section of the South Platte.
The 1,655-acre Tomahawk State Wildlife Area is located northwest of Hartsel along the Middle Fork of the South Platte River. Fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing are allowed in accordance with state regulations but no facilities are provided. Please visit the Colorado Parks & Wildlife website for a map of designated parking areas. To reach the State Wildlife Area from Hartsel, drive 5 miles north on Highway 9 to the access road and turn right, then drive half a mile to the parking area.
