Welcome to Cross D Bar Recreation Foundation

Providing Outdoor Opportunities for the Disabled

The Cross D Bar Recreation Foundation is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization dedicated to providing disabled, physically challenged, wounded warriors and the elderly opportunities to experience the thrills and challenges of fishing camping and outdoor recreation.
 
Located on an 800 acre ranch 13 miles east of Westcliffe, Colorado in the shadow of the Sangre de Cristo mountains. 
 
The Foundation offers year-round family fun, fishing and uncrowded camping.
 
Men, women and children of all ages find the four lakes and campsites ideal for the disabled, wounded warriors and entire family.

 

Our Facilities

As the demand for fishing and camping grew, the Foundation realized that it was not adequately meeting the needs of the disabled, handicapped and elderly sports person. 

After an exclusive study and review of the existing trails and facilities, we installed fishing piers, dam bumpers, bridges over spillways, handicapped ramps, toilets and electrical outlets for the equipment vehicles.  This renovation, all ADA compliant, has enabled more disabled people to utilize the ranch.
 
Our current goal is to expand our events so that we can accomodate more than 700 Wounded Warriors who call Fort Carson home.
