Fly Fishing: Few Monarch skiers realize that the snow-covered
slopes they enjoy feed one of Colorado’s most valuable and
important trout fisheries – the Arkansas River. And while
fly-fishing is often perceived as a summertime activity, the fact
is that winter fly-fishing on the Arkansas River can be quite rewarding
and offers a great departure from more traditional forms of alpine
recreation.
