Buckskin Gulch lies between the Alma Cemetery and Pike National Forest west of the Town of Alma. It includes one mile of Buckskin Creek, wetlands, open meadows, aspen and conifer forests, and has been used by the public for camping. The Town of Alma’s water supply system is located on an inholding within the property, so this easement also serves as water supply protection for the Town. Project Partners include Great Outdoors Colorado, the Park County Land & Water Trust Fund, and the Alma Foundation.
