Sarvis Creek Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in Routt National Forest, Colorado.
The Sarvis Creek Wilderness spans 47,140 acres of dense forest, featuring lodgepole pine at lower elevations and Engelmann spruce at higher altitudes.
The United States Congress designated this land as protected wilderness through the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993, preserving its natural characteristics.
The name derives from the Sarvis Timber Company that conducted logging operations in the surrounding regions during previous decades.
Visitors can explore over 20 miles of marked trails through the wilderness, with Sarvis Creek Trail and Silver Creek Trail offering different hiking experiences.
Unlike most Colorado wilderness areas, this protected space does not contain alpine tundra zones within its boundaries.
