NATIONAL PARKArapaho And Roosevelt National Forests And Pawnee National Grassland In north-central Colorado past and present coexist within the 1,280,000 mountainous acres of the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests, which embrace some of the higher and more visited areas of the region. Creaking ghost towns in the Arapaho region set off lively ski resorts, and the rotted roadbeds of abandoned narrow-gauge railways contrast with the well-maintained highways that provide access to this rooftop of the continent.Arapaho And Roosevelt National Forests And Pawnee National Grassland
