Location: Garfield County, Colorado

 

6100 acres of ranch land located 40 miles west of Aspen, eight miles south of Glenwood Springs and five miles south of New Castle in east-central Garfield County on the south side of Interstate 70.

​

The property will remain privately owned, but the conservation easement prohibits any future development or subdivision of the property, allowing only for a few agricultural structures.

​

The easement donation to Aspen Valley Lend Trust, Colorado’s oldest land trust, provides a timely example of a company deeply engaged in ecological practices for the benefit of their bottom line, while keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
