A popular site for recreation, North Sterling State Park promises a piece of the great outdoors.
From any spot in North Sterling Park, visitors are surrounded by views of the high plains and the bluffs reaching over the 3,000-surface acre reservoir. Called a boaters paradise, the reservoir is stocked with warm-water fish, including rainbow trout, walleye, saugeye, wiper, smallmouth bass and many others.
All park visitors must purchase a Colorado State Park pass at a cost of $5 a day or $55 for an annual pass. Colorado residents 64 or older may buy an Aspen Leaf pass for $27. Elks campground, north of the dam, is open year-round. The two south campgrounds are open from May to Labor Day weekend. Call 970-522-3657 for fees.

Prewitt Reservoir
