Service Creek State Wildlife Area and Sarvis Creek Wilderness - Routt County
Aliases: Sarvis Creek Wilderness
Ownership: None Listed
Description: The day use area at Service Creek State Wildlife Area includes good riparian habitats. Watch for Tree and Cliff Swallows, Steller's Jay, Gray-headed Junco and Cassin's Finch. The Service Creek trail leads into the Sarvis Creek Wilderness area and beyond to the Continental Divide, although it does not get above treeline. Sarvis Creek Wilderness Area is unusual in that it is not a particularly high altitude area. The top is about 10,800 and heavily wooded to the very top of the boundry at the Continental Divide. It does house a high concentration of black bear, however. The access road is closed in winter.

Habitat: Aspen Grove, Mountain Meadow, Lowland Riparian, Mixed Conifer Forest
Elevation:
Directions: The SWA is adjacent to Stagecoach Reservoir State Park. To Service Creek SWA, from the summer entrance to Stagecoach State Park, go straight past the fork to the park contact station. Follow CR 18 to the SWA entrance.
