Finding your inner cowboy in Clark

Little Clark makes its home amid rancher outposts and blooming wildflower meadows, where cowboys still sometimes roam the ridges with their lassos spinning above the saddle, and where the peaks are often caked in icy-white snow. It's a charming, small-town sort of place, where the Clark vacation rentals and rustic cabins in the hills welcome hikers and horse riders, mountain bikers and those who simply want to steal away to a quieter corner of the Centennial State.

The draws of the great Colorado outdoors in Clark

Transport yourself back to the time of the American pioneers and mountain men with a jaunt to Clark vacation rentals in the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forests. You'll likely be bedding down in a rustic cabin surrounded by swaying pine trees and babbling creeks, but you will have the untrodden trailheads that whisk intrepid folk up to Lost Ranger Peak and the Big Agnes Mountain right on the doorstep. Other stays will place you next to the Steamboat Lake State Park, where boating and cycling, summertime beaches and snowmobiling in winter are the name of the game.

Clark brims with creeks

You won't have to look far to find some sort of outdoor adventure around Clark. To the east are wind-blasted pine forests and remote walking trails that can take you to the mirror-like alpine lakes on the Coloradan plateaus. In the west is the distinct top of Diamond Peak, around which you can snowshoe and cross-country ski when the snows are falling – and they often do. Throw in a couple of historic nature trails past old pioneer trading posts, and some summertime family beaches on nearby lakes, and you should have plenty to fuel a whole vacation of exploration.

Know your seasons in Clark

It's good to know the seasons before you plan that trip to little Clark, Colorado. That's because the weather during each will change the tone of your vacation dramatically. Just check out the average snowfall for the months between December and March. Hefty, eh? That's the ski season, when you're best off bringing the salopettes and hitting the pistes of the nearby Steamboat Ski Resort. For hikers, horse riders, and mountain bikers, summer is the top choice. Or, you could come in May – when the wildflower meadows bloom – and September – the start of fall.
