Colorado Caliber: Wilderness On Wheels

Colorado Caliber is proud to announce a brand new partnership with Wilderness On Wheels. We have developed a custom Colorado Caliber design for the non-profit. That design will be available on apparel later in 2017, exclusively at Wilderness On Wheels in Grant, CO. Also, we'll be donating a portion of every website sale made through coloradocaliber.com this year to Wilderness On Wheels.

Wilderness On Wheels has been offering access to nature since 1986.

Nestled at the base of Kenosha Pass in Park County, Wilderness On Wheels offers hiking on an 8-foot, mile-long boardwalk up to 9,200 feet; and a half-mile long boardwalk along Elk Creek. There are also two accessible cabins available for a small fee; twelve campsites (some with raised tent sites) including fire pits and charcoal cookers; and 5 huts, built level for a wheelchair for easy access.

The small pond is stocked three times a summer, and you do not need a license to fish in the pond or the creek; but you do need to bring your own equipment, bait, and take your fish home - or cook them on an open fire pit at Wilderness On Wheels. We also ask that you TAKE OUT what you bring in - we do not have trash service.

Wilderness On Wheels has operated for thirty years as a non-profit 501(c)3, with no paid staff - only volunteers who have put in over 115,000 hours to keep WOW the beautiful camping experience it is. Wilderness On Wheels has hosted as many as 2,000 visitors a year, from across the entire world, and the main reason being that families and friends of those with disabilities can hike, camp and fish together. No is left out!

Those visiting: the disabled, elderly, or family and friends, can walk or roll through lush forests with a view of the beautiful Rocky Mountains; have a picnic in areas covered with wildflowers and surrounded by majestic Evergreens and quaking Aspens; or listen to a bird chirp, watch a squirrel scampering, or watch the hundreds of hummingbirds that frequent Wilderness On Wheels throughout the spring and summer. You may also see deer, elk or even a bear!

Visiting Wilderness On Wheels is an awesome adventure for young and old, the disabled and the able-bodied. There are accessible public restrooms, but we do not have showers (except in one of the cabins). Reservations are not required, but are appreciated. The cabins and huts fill up quickly, so if you plan an overnight trip to Wilderness On Wheels, reservations should be made ahead of time.

Wilderness On Wheels is located 65 miles west of Denver, on Highway 285, just west of Grant. See you this summer!!
