Cañon City District
Proudly serving Custer, Fremont and Pueblo Counties
The CaƱon City District of the Colorado State Forest Service (CSFS) is one of 17 districts located throughout Colorado. We are a division of the Warner College of Natural Resources at Colorado State University (CSU). Our headquarters is located on the CSU’s foothills campus in Fort Collins.
Our mission is to provide for the stewardship of forest resources and to reduce related risks to life, property and the environment for the benefit of present and future generations.
The Cañon City District delivers technical assistance to private landowners, municipal and county governments and agencies. The district is the silvicultural lessee for state trust lands in Pueblo, Fremont and Custer counties.
Our programs and services are varied but generally fall with the areas of forest management, fire prevention, mitigation and control, community forestry, and information and education. We are staffed with two foresters and a half time administrative assistant. We also share our office with an inventory forester responsible for conducting the Forest Inventory and Analysis program in southeastern Colorado.
