Apex Park closed while Colorado Parks and Wildlife monitors aggressive bear activity
A popular park in Jefferson County has been closed due to "aggressive bear activity." Apex Park was temporarily closed on Monday to protect visitors while Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers monitor conditions.
Apex Park encompasses nearly 800 acres in Golden. According to the Jeffco Open Space, a "stream runs alongside a trail in part of the park, and a dense forest provides shady areas on the west end."
The park has been described as popular for mountain biking with technical trails and a steep challenge up Lookout Mountain.
Apex Park is located about 20 miles west of Denver.
