Hey Jeff,
I understand the Colorado is formed by massive upheaval in the tectonic plates. Somehow, the South Park must have been densely forested for a long time to produce the coal beds.
Before or after the upheaval, I am not experienced to guess. But if I had to guess, I would say before. Coal forms over millions of years.

Cheers.
