<h1>The Continental Divide Trail</h1>
About six years ago the Town of South Fork purchased the first lot on the South East corner of the intersection of State Highway 149 and County Road 15 for the purpose of creating a gateway park. Momentum to move this project forward has greatly increased in the past two years.

First, the South Fork Chamber of Commerce started dedicating part of the funds raised at their events to the Park project. In late 2010, the Chamber donated the funds they had raised to the foundation to be placed in a designated fund for the park.

Volunteers from the community have spent several workdays cleaning up the park site. Old fences have been removed and fallen trees that have been an eye sore for years have been cleaned up. Foliage along the river bank has been cleared to allow for river access.

In 2010, Cameron Parker, a local landscape architect, donated a conceptual park design. The South Fork Kiwanis Club donated a sign designating the area as the future home of the park. Four picnic tables were purchased by GSFCF and placed near the river.

The Town of South Fork is working with the Colorado Department of Transportaion to gain access to CDOT's land between Hwy 149 and the park. Access to this area will increase the land area for the park by almost half.
