Silt, Co. is situated between Glenwood Springs and Rifle in the arid mountains along I-70. Harvey Gap is Silt's backyard playground. Stocked with rainbow trout, crappie, catfish, and small-mouth bass, the lake and state park is especially popular for fishing. The 160-acre lake is also ideal for windsurfing. Adjacent park property, covered in cedar and sagebrush, also offers places to hike, picnic, snowmobile, and cross-country ski. Bordered by thousands of acres of BLM land and just minutes from the White River National Forest, Silt is also an easy place to spot wildlife such as elk, mule deer, mountain lions, black bears, coyotes, foxes, wild turkeys, and pheasants.
