Our extensive inventories for the WRNF plan revision teed up 82,000 acres for future wilderness designation

Proposed wilderness designation for dozens of areas

Capping a 15-year effort, obtained a more wildlife- and watershed-friendly plan governing all roads and trails on the Forest

Helped force a legal settlement with Dept. of Interior to revisit oil shale approvals; Colorado acreage subsequently reduced from 350,000 acres to 35,000 acres

BLM reconsiders decision to sell 65 oil and gas leases on the White River National Forest based on years of legal advocacy by WW and partners

A 10-year campaign culminated in the permanent protection of this 82,000-acre area

The BLM cancelled 25 illegal oil and gas leases in the Thompson Divide

Partnered with Aspen Ranger District to launch trail and campsite monitoring program; later added air, water and invasive-weed protocols

After two years of advocacy and work we signed an agreement that would result in the City of Aspen moving and downsizing its current water rights to build dams on Castle and Maroon Creeks. This win-win agreement guarantees that no dams will be built in these iconic valleys!
