Golf in Meeker

Meeker is the Rio Blanco County seat in the White River valley of northwestern Colorado, an isolated ranching and hunting community whose remoteness has preserved a genuinely western character increasingly rare in the front-range-adjacent areas of the state. Meeker Golf Course provides this self-sufficient agricultural community with recreational golf access in a county seat where the distance from metropolitan amenities has made every local institution especially important to community social life. The town's identity as a gateway to world-class elk hunting in the White River National Forest and the Flat Tops Wilderness makes it a well-known name among hunters and outdoor enthusiasts even as it remains largely unknown to Colorado's urban population.
