The Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests are administered jointly, with the headquarters in Fort Collins. These forests encompass much of Rocky Mountains and foothills of north-central Colorado. The Forests extend from Boulder and Fort Collins on the east, to Hot Sulphur Springs and North Park on the west and the Wyoming border south to Mount Evans. The Forests surround Rocky Mountain National Park and towns including Estes Park, Nederland, Idaho Springs, Winter Park and Granby.
