The Williams Fork River is a major tributary to the Colorado River. The two rivers join together in Parshall. The Williams Fork Reservoir is the source of this smaller tailwater. While not a glorified river, the Williams Fork is a Colorado gem. This mile and a half stretch of water rarely has crowds, due to the 30 minute hike to the river. ...
