• Approximately 246,000 children under age 6 (nearly 2/3 of Colorado kids) have both of their parents or guardians in the workforce

• More than 640 million dollars is generated within the child care sector

• The early care and education industry generates 1.4 billion for Colorado’s economy

• 76.7% of Children under 6 in Gunnison County have both parents participating in the labor force

• Did you know that Gunnison is considered a childcare desert-which means Gunnison does not have enough license child-care providers?

Gunnison County, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the U. S. Forest Service (USFS) have temporarily closed a number of roads to all motor vehicles to protect Gunnison sage-grouse during their mating season and to prevent road damage during wet spring conditions.

These roads are closed March 15 and will reopen on May 15, 2023.

These include Henkel Road and Smokey Bear access roads.

BLM roads across the basin are subject to the motorized closures except for Hartman Rocks north of the Powerline Road.

Roads and trails in the north end of Hartman’s are subject to closure based on winter and mud conditions but those will open when roads and trails dry out.

Signal Peak roads and trails on BLM lands remain closed to motorized use from January 1 to May 15 to protect wintering wildlife.

Mechanized use on Signal Peak is allowed east of the Signal Peak Rd beginning May 1 after 10 am.

There is a human use closure on Signal Peak from March 15 to May 15; affected trails include: The Ridge, Rasta Gulch, and Chicken Wing.

These closures apply to all motorized vehicles. Do not park at the closures in a manner that blocks access through the closure gates. All non-motorized trail users are also requested to use Gunnison Basin roads/trails only after 9 a.m. during this period to help reduce disturbance to sage-grouse.
