## Natural Features

In the heart of the Rocky Mountains, the 2.3 million-acre White River National
Forest is a place of serenity and adventure, boasting eight wilderness areas,
four defined seasons and ten peaks surpassing 14,000 feet in elevation. The
White River National Forest was established in 1891 as the White River Plateau
Timber Reserve; the second such reserve to be named in the United States. In
1905, the newly formed Forest Service was given authority of the reserve. Long
before this designation, the area was home to the Ute Indians who followed
herds of elk and bison on their seasonal migrations. Wildlife in the area
abounds. Bighorn sheep navigate rocky ridges and bull elk bugle at dusk.
Scenic rivers sustain populations of cutthroat, rainbow and brown trout.
Alpine regions provide habitat for pika and ptarmigan.

## Natural Features

In the heart of the Rocky Mountains, the 2.3 million acre White River National
Forest is a place of serenity and adventure, boasting 8 wilderness areas, 4
defined seasons, and 10 peaks surpassing 14,000 feet in elevation.  
  
Described as being more vertical than horizontal, nearby Eagles Nest
Wilderness Area, designated in 1976, is a playground of craggy cliffs, sheer
rock faces, alpine lakes, and deep, forested valleys. Visitors will find foot
travel across this pristine area challenging and often strenuous, but will be
rewarded with spectacular scenery.  
  
Wildlife in the area abounds. Bighorn sheep navigate rocky ridges and bull elk
bugle at dusk. Scenic rivers sustain populations of cutthroat, rainbow, and
brown trout. Alpine regions provide habitat for pika and ptarmigan. These
species, along with many others, depend on surrounding undeveloped wilderness,
clean streams, and diverse forests to live.

## Natural Features

In the heart of the Rocky Mountains, the 2.3 million-acre White River National
Forest is a place of serenity and adventure, boasting eight wilderness areas,
four defined seasons and ten peaks surpassing 14,000 feet in elevation. The
White River National Forest was established in 1891 as the White River Plateau
Timber Reserve; the second such reserve to be named in the United States. In
1905, the newly formed Forest Service was given authority of the reserve. Long
before this designation, the area was home to the Ute Indians who followed
herds of elk and bison on their seasonal migrations. Wildlife in the area
abounds. Bighorn sheep navigate rocky ridges and bull elk bugle at dusk.
Scenic rivers sustain populations of cutthroat, rainbow and brown trout.
Alpine regions provide habitat for pika and ptarmigan.
