Colorado county's $34m ranch purchase adds 530 acres to protected wilderness

In a momentous conservation victory, a historic ranch in Colorado has been designated as protected wilderness. This expansion secures an impressive 530 acres of public land, which local officials successfully purchased through a record-breaking deal two years prior. After being privately held for more than a century, this acquisition ensures the enduring protection of crucial wildlife habitats and public access to the land.
