Colorado Wild Horse Interpretive

Center & Park

Craig, Colorado

Situated on the east edge of Craig at the Wyman Museum, eight (8) life size bronze statues depict herd life in the wild. The ever watchful stallion gazing down from his ledge as his mares, with their young, drink from the water hole while a rival band approaches for a drink he fearlessly stands guard.

A handicap accessible trail meanders around the park where visitors can relax and enjoy a picnic at one of the tables or get their picture taken by one of the statues or drop a line into the water and catch some fish. Along the trail are kiosks with photographs of the Sand Wash, Piceance Basin, and Bookcliffs herds of Northwest Colorado with directions.

Sight impaired visitors will hear, while others can read tales of the wild horses of America, their contribution and importance to the settlement of the west, and the development of the American Quarter Horse.The Park and adjacent museum will provide an excellant opportunity to learn some local western history and be a cultural and economic benefit as it enhances our local community.

The Colorado Wild Horse Monument Park and Interpretive Center will preserve this rich and magnificent heritage for future generations.
