Welcome to Rifle Mountain Park
On June 7, 1910 a Special Act passed by the 61st Congress, granted a number of municipalities the chance to claim land to make them into parks.  In Colorado, Denver, Glenwood Springs and Rifle took this opportunity.  Denver's became Winter Park Resort and Red Rocks.  Glenwood's became the South Canyon Landfill.  And on October 21, 1921, a US Patent signed by Warren G. Harding made Rifle Mountain Park. Visitors from all over the globe visit the park for its rock climbing.  The park boasts over 250 bolted climbing routes.  New routes are bolted through a permitting process, that includes the Rifle Climbers Coalition.  A beginners area is currently being formed.
