Bill Patterson State Wildlife Area

Score4.0

Bill Patterson State Wildlife Area in northwest Colorado offers quiet backcountry scenes with desert scrub, open rangelands, and chances to photograph wildlife at close-to-natural scale. For photographers, the wide horizons work for dramatic skies and long-distance compositions; mornings and late afternoons bring softer light and more animal activity. Day-use typically has no fee, but check Colorado Parks & Wildlife for any access rules.
