John,

Colorado’s high country is a land of awe-inspiring vistas, old-growth forests, vital wildlife habitat and crucial migration corridors. Bears, elk, mule deer — even Canada lynx, threatened with extinction — all call this place home. But without protections these spectacular public lands are vulnerable to destructive fracking and mining.
