Target your subscription by keyword:

- lcopenspaces will provide alerts for Horsetooth Mountain, Devil's Backbone, Hermit Park, Eagle's Nest, and Red Mountain Open Spaces
Please note: Alerts will disseminate when parking lots reach 80-90% full as measured by staff on site. Alerts will NOT be sent for inclement weather conditions, disaster updates, road closures, rescue/recovery updates, or other marketing information. The alerts will also not be sent when parking lots have returned to open capacity after being full. We recommend visiting open spaces before 9 a.m. and reservoirs before 10 a.m. to avoid delays in parking.
Please visit other communication channels to get informed regarding non-parking related conditions impacting your visit.
